“though every morning we seem to wake, and might just as well seem to sleep again” “his heart is a place with the lights gone out, forsaken by great winds and the heavenly rain, unclean and unswept” “i want what world there is behind your eyes, i want your life and you will not give it to me.” so old, so young and infinite and lost.”

“and i shall die or perhaps grow old before he comes.” “who knows what others he may meet to turn his eyes away from me?” “he found me and i lost the way, to paradise for him.” lend me a little while, the key that locks your heavy heart.” “i think my soul is red like the soul of a sword or a scarlet flower.”
