Even as a
Shadow,
Even as a dream.”

“Do you know what you are?
You are a manuscript of a divine letter.
You are a mirror reflecting a noble face.
This universe is not outside of you.
Look inside yourself;
Everything that you want,
You are already that.”
“I am made and remade
continually.
Different people draw
different words
from me.”
The Waves
“I want to be with you,
it is as simple,
and as complicated as that.”
“It is unbearably painful for the soul to love silently.”
The Complete Poems
“Are you in love?”
“Out-“
Romeo and Juliet
“May you not rest as long as I am living. You said I killed you – haunt me then.”
Wuthering Heights
These violent delights have violent ends
And in their triumph die, like fire and powder
Which, as they kiss, consume.
Romeo and Juliet
“Don’t tell me that. I’ve lived in hell for the past thousand years. I spent a thousand years wishing I’d never been born. She’s the only thing that’s made my life worth living and if that’s all I get, a few months with her- a few days, it’s more than I’ve ever hoped for. Do you really think God would forgive me for the blood on my hands, even if my soul was free? I’m going to hell no matter what happens. Let me have my pathetic hopeless love while I can. Just- let me pretend it will turn out alright.”
Lament
For you, a thousand times over.
