darkness.”

“The Scholars
"Bald heads forgetful of their sins,
Old, learned, respectable bald heads
Edit and annotate the lines
That young men, tossing on their beds,
Rhymed out in love’s despair
To flatter beauty’s ignorant ear.

They’ll cough in the ink to the world’s end;
Wear out the carpet with their shoes
Earning respect; have no strange friend;
If they have sinned nobody knows.
Lord, what would they say
Should their Catullus walk that way?”
― W.B. Yeats, The Wild Swans at Coole

“Manhood Diaries (The Sonnet)

Onun için cennet ol, cehennem değil.
Vicdanlı bir adam ol, hayvan değil.
Sé una bendición para ella, no una maldición.
Onun yaralarına ilacı ol, tuz değil.

Be her paradise, not prison.
Be her man, not master.
Be a miracle to her maladies.
Be her crown, not custard.

There is no alpha male and beta male,
There is only man and baboon.
Decency defines a man's character,
Not the virility of his heirloom.

Partner on the streets,
Slave between the sheets,
That's what a real man is.
Undaunted in danger,
Uncompromising in calamity,
That's what a real human is.”
― Abhijit Naskar, Visvavictor: Kanima Akiyor Kainat

“When night has fallen so hard
and you just can’t find your way,
follow the sound of my voice
back to the shelter of my arms.

When the cruelty of this world
blinds you to all your beauty,
see yourself through my eyes
and witness your magnificence.

When your heart lies broken
in a thousand shattered pieces,
let me gather all of them up,
and mend them with my love.”
― John Mark Green, The Light You Need II: Romantic Love Poetry

“I’ll steal wild honey for your lips,
gather flowers to crown your head,
hide sunlight in your heart
for days of rain and thunder.”

in the forest of my dreams.

“I will love you
as long as the sun
burns in the sky,
as long as the moon
shines its light
into the dark night,
until the raging
blue oceans become
calm and run dry.
I will love you until
the end of time.”
― Christy Ann Martine, She'll Find the Sky: A Collection of Poems

In the wide waste there still is a tree,
And a bird in the solitude singing
Which speaks to me spirit of thee.”

And I have made my choice.”
