Ars amandi ❤️ the art of love.

It’s been a very busy week! I brought myself a Macbook Air (and I’m new to Apple, so it was fairly stressful and fun setting it up, but I got there in the end). I also caught up with some Biology work, I have been reading Paradise Lost by John Milton, and I have been practising French!

You know you are obsessed with a book when you have to stop what you are doing every other minute to read just a little bit more of that book you are so hooked on.

Karlheinz Fanfiction! :)

'He looked like a god, the man standing at the end of the ballroom did. Truly. The glow from the chandeliers that hung gracefully from the vast ceiling above made his long, silky-looking, white hair look like a halo, and it was the most breath-taking effect. Eve, Daughter of the Vibora King and Queen, just couldn't stop gazing.'

The very first paragraph of my Karlheinz (Dia Lovers) fanfiction! :D

She was standing on a cliff, the waves of the ocean crashing far below her.

She looked down. Ezra was there, his arms outstretched, his head back. He was calling to her. "You’re mine, angel," he said. "Jump to me. I’ll catch you, sweetheart. I’ll always catch you."

Jump,

Just jump,

Just jump…

- l.m.i, The Devil She Loved (Excerpt) ©

“You’re just not so easy to love.” There. There it was. Six words that simply angered her so much. Six words that threw her off a cliff. Her fault. Her fault. Her fault. Her fault that tears welled up in her eyes when she was scared of saying too much or saying not enough. When she thought she was holding on too hard. When she called too often. When she asked what he was up to five times per day. When he told her she looked nice in the moonlight glow and she shook her head no and averted her gaze. “You’re hard to love.” Four words. Merely four words. Four words that drove a blunt blade right through her chest, twisting it until she could no longer draw another breath. A lie that made her stomach clench, made her guts freeze, and made her heart pound with utter fear and hurt. Not good enough, never. Her fault. Her fault. Her fault… Until it wasn’t. Until she found strength in the way the moon lives on without the sun and the stars shine on their own. Until her grandmother made her a cup of chamomile tea and pulled her into an embrace and told her never ever believe someone who said she was hard to love. Because she wasn’t. There would always be people who couldn’t love her and people who simply don’t want to love her. But that wasn’t her fault. It really wasn’t. Because she was easy to love. Everyone’s easy to love if the other person pays enough attention. If they put in some effort. Try a little harder. If they listen. And if you still can’t love them, it’s okay. It’s okay as long as you don’t make them feel like it’s their fault - it’s a burden they’ll end up carrying for a lifetime. And no one - no one - deserves to live a life where they are constantly doubting their value and worth. So tell them you can’t love them, not in the way they want. But don’t tell them they’re hard to love. They’re not. Hades, Lord of the Underworld, wasn’t hard to love; Persephone, Goddess of Spring, loved him truly. So no one is hard to love. No one.
