muse

My muse, my light, my art knows your shades as if it were its own

I will immortalize you in my world, through and through.

With my brushstrokes as sharp as your words, with my colors as bright as your hearts core.

If you ruin me, i will let you.

you wear damaged scars on the tip of your fingertips,

My eyes only regard them for how they fabricate you glow,

Your breath a phantom of the winds soft kiss,

As you break my heart, I will beg you to do it slow.

My lovely muse with the deepest water under the shore,

I will drown, deeper and deeper with a smile till all ends,

As the life falls out of my being onto your ocean floor,

My love knew no limits, i loved as soft as cotton tends.

My ever young light, you live forever in my art

I watch gladly, as you tear me apart.

"the despair of an idealism that you can't attain" aaaaaaaah, i am so dead

"I am eternally, devastatingly romantic, and I thought people would see it because 'romantic' doesn't mean sugary' It's dark and tormented - the furor of passion, the despair of an idealism that you can't attain."

- Catherine Breillat

A Collegiate Cat

Just a wonderful poem about a cat, but make it old and fancy sounding – found on Smithsonian

Hey 🌸˚˖⋆, so lately I've been thinking of ways to romanticize my college experience and decluttering and re-organizing my digital space with Notion has been helping with this.

What is your favorite kind of aesthetic for Notion.

I swear I don't lack skills to communicate, I'm simply too tired to engage..

even when the flame expires and the roses wilt, I will still love you: for death is only the beginning of new life

happy september to everyone! 🍂☕️

If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.

Albert Einstein

"Christmas is a magical moment of glory; the birth of humanity."

Sir Kristian Goldmund Aumann

"If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all."

Oscar Wilde

"Let us read, and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world."

Voltaire

Oppressit in tricliniis versatilibus parasitos suos violis et floribus, sic ut animam aliqui efflaverint, cum erepere ad summum non possent.
