Iron deficiency is funny cause why I sneezed yesterday and today my hemoglobin dropped to 10

Time, wondrous time Gave me the blues and then purple pink skies And it's cool, baby, with me And isn't it just so pretty to think All along there was some Invisible string Tying you to me?

When Mary Shelly wrote "I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other" god I really felt that

Peel off every relation The so called human connection Shed them as you shed clothes Even the ones that feel like second skin Be naked as you were born and as you ought to die 'Alone '

an underrated detail in pride and prejudice is that elizabeth bennett was home alone on the day darcy proposed because she had a headache. can you imagine. this was in the pre-painkillers era. you're at home with a headache and then this asshole walks into the room and tells you he loves you and wants to marry you even though he hates your whole family and you're beneath him. imagine having to deal with that while also having a headache. she doesn't even have ibuprofen

you ever know someone and you think “god i love you. i wish we could’ve known eachother when we were carefree and 11. i wish we could’ve played together as kids”

*Nobody, no one, me and that one friend who reads classics chatting

Me: You picked me from ground and placed me on highest alter of your good opinion

Him: Well, I only put the ones who rise up and the ones who belong there. You are both

Me: You flatter me, o noble one

Him: Well, yes charming lady, no throne is enough to equal your opinion and presence

Me: And it is your high opinion, dear sir, that has made me thus capable as to reveal my inner guarded self

Him: Well, this armour has also opened up to your healing touch to be more human

Me: That is a compliment, which gives me such joy as to words fail to convey my absolute delight

Him: Well, exchanging delights with a person as delightful as you is nothing short of a blessing

Me: May the heavens give me such strength as to forever be this light

Him: And I know, for this isn't given by the heavens, but has existed within you forever. For truly, God himself must be smiling on such grace as yourself

Me: You shan't speak thus, you make me blush, truly a lady's heart must be guarded against such proceedings, less shall she loose it to a sweat talker

Him: Well, sweet talks isn't really my delights, for it is only factual information that I conveyed. These proceedings are nothing but true from the heart of this gentleman

Me: And I know for a fact that this man is a true gentleman and hear, hear! he has a heart

Some people are just plain toxic. No explanation needed.

At the end of the day, we are all scared little creatures who just want to be happy.

[bookishsoulsstuff]

They ask me Why you run away from love? What's wrong with loving someone? And I just smile and shake my head. Because I cannot explain it to them. Cannot describe this deep seated fear of vulnerability in me. This constant unease that accompanies the vulnerability. It feels like I'll be sick just by thinking about it . Every action makes me flinch. As if I'm expecting something. A blow in their kind gestures? The possibility that may be the next word uttered will shatter my heart? That the next touch will break my body? No, I cannot explain this. So I just smile. And hope you read this in my eyes.

[bookishsoulsstuff]

Does anyone else hate it when someone gives you a little attention and your mind just starts revolving around them? They alone become the centre of all your thoughts. And then poof! They're gone. and you're there with no idea what to think or how to think anything else because you were only thinking of them.

Tried to read Milton's Paradise Lost and yep! Old English poetry are still out of my league🥲

When someone's being a lil bit too kind and friendly,

Me to myself: DON'T. YOU. DARE. FALL. IN. LOVE.
