Where Every Scroll is a New Adventure
come avoid the sunday scaries with me :)
//Whatever dies, was not mixed equally;
If our two loves be one, or, thou and I
Love so alike, that none do slacken, none can die.//
There is a face beneath this mask, but it isn't me. I'm no more that face than I am the muscles beneath it, or the bones beneath that.

Henrik Ibsen's Puphejmo-A Doll's House

Shameless and callous I love you.
Out of indifference I love you.
I will pretend that someone out there is reading my work !! maybe then I will write more often
Golden mornings and cool sea breezes brought them together.
Playful touches turned to yearnings with depth.
Days passed and love grew.
Until one day a shadow came uninvited.
Soon enough hell broke loose.
Still they managed to find their homes in the arms of the other.
But fate is bitter and sour and cruel.
It took away the black haired boy from his lover.
And left the other to grieve forever.
But what no one saw was the rage deep in the blues.
While the golden haired burned the world alive,
fate watched in the corner scared and small.
When the Trojans took away his home, his love, what could Achilles do except grieve for Patroclus.
And his grief brought the mighty warriors to their knees.
Troy did not not lose the war. Nor did the Greek win it.
Achilles grieved for Patroclus, and soon enough the war ended.
when the Donna Tartt; dark sweaters and short skirts; lace tights and mary janeโs; ink stained fingertips and scribbled notes in the margins; Mary Shelleyโs Frankenstein and M.L. Rioโs If We Were Villians; writing in a spiraled notebook; lectures on Rome and Religion; starts to resurface in your psyche
oh to live in oneโs own apartment surrounded by antique furniture and booksโฆ
โThese violent delights have violents ends. And in their triumph die, like fire and powder, Which, as they kiss, consume.โ

- William Shakespeare, Hamlet
โtake me oh muse to the madness within and let us sink into the thought that perhaps one day I shall find you in the oblivionโ
โAnd I say: hello satan,I believe, it's time to go; Me and the devil, Walking side by sideโ
- Me and the Devil by Soap&Skin
โLet be not a tragedy worse than that of mine own nature/For woe shall thy heart beat only for thine affection/Oh cursed beauty thou art the artist of my pain/Love lives not in thy body but in mine soul for shall I devote my every breath to theeโ
โi will live a hundred lifetimes if it means that in one of them i can sit beside you and- even if just for a moment- know that you are mine.โ
โthen let this be the hundredth one and no more- for there is no life of mine where you are not beside me.โ
โthere must be another way, another ending to this madness.โ
โbut oh how Iโve dreamt of it this way.โ
everyday my mind spirals more and more with my passion for greek mythology, ancient history, and literature <3

In honor of school starting back up for many of you, a gentle reminder that it is okay to be scared and anxious, just slow down and know youโre going to be alright

โI wanted to feel loved without feeling like I was begging for it.โ

โThe gods envy us. They envy us because we are mortal, because any moment may be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we are doomed.โ
