Is this the part where I tell you how much I like long walks on the beach and getting caught in the rain? Because I do. So that's what I'll tell you. I like long walks on the beach. I also like getting caught in the rain. There.

I will miss you always, even in the moments when you are right beside me. Time apart has planted longing inside me and I do not think it is a weed that will ever stop growing. It will always live there, but my god it grows the most spectacular flowers.

Honey be my little sun, When we ain't gettin none. And cup your hands round a match, and fasten up your last jacket latch, stand and sway with me, In the dark cold loneliness breeze.

The Blossom Merry, merry sparrow! Under leaves so green A happy blossom Sees you, swift as arrow, Seek your cradle narrow, Near my bosom. Pretty, pretty robin! Under leaves so green A happy blossom Hears you sobbing, sobbing, Pretty, pretty robin, Near my bosom.

William Blake
