  ― Pablo Neruda, One Hundred Love Sonnets

[text ID: I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, / in secret, between the shadow and the soul.]

[thecrownedadonis-deactivated202]

“Passion, like crime, does not sit well with the sure order and even course of everyday life. It welcomes every loosening of the social fabric, every confusion and affliction visited upon the world, for passion sees in such a disorder a vague hope of finding advantage for itself.”

— Thomas Mann, from “Death in Venice”, originally published c. 1912.

Your poets? Dead. Your history? Secret. Your darlings? Killed. You? Probably not straight

"It takes great courage to see the world in all its tainted glory, and still to love it."

Was with my friend and were watching like a lifestyle documentary and she was like "ah... Paris... The city of... Baguettes"

You know what? Yes. I relate to that spiritually. Who cares about love and light? 😂😂

🥺Some things to do when you're feeling sick🥺

💖Make/order a awesome breakfast

-this is the perfect excuse to have whatever the heck you feel like. Make/Order something delicious and hearty. Remember you need nutrients to get you better and healthy again soon though

💖Have a relaxing shower/bath

-the best time to bust out your fav shower gels, soaps, conditioners, bath bombs and anything else you love/have been saving. Pamper yourself, man! You deserve it!

💖Do something you love

-sometimes we just don't have time to do the things we enjoy and believe it or not, that can cause some of the stress-induced sickness you could be feeling. So take some time to do what makes you happy. Whether that be drawing, reading, playing and instrument or playing a sport(though you may not have energy for that lol)

🧁Super Simple Chocolate Cupcakes!!!🧁

🍨Ingredients:🍨

50g sugar

25g flour

25g cocoa powder

50g butter

1 egg

Pinch of salt

Dash of cinnamon

🍫Steps:🍫

1. Cream all sugar and butter together

2. Crack egg into another bowl and beat with cinnamon. Add it in small amounts to the sugar-butter mixture, mixing in between additions.

3. If u have a sieve, sieve in flour and cocoa powder. This just makes it more fluffy. If not, just add it in slowly and mix.

4. Add a pinch of salt and pour mixture into cupcake cases. This makes 2 for me. But it depends on your case. *Only pour about half of the case or it will overflow when it bakes cause it rises.

5. Enjoy!!!

P.S. I topped mine with blueberries and peanut butter but you can do whatever your heart desires 🥰🥰🥰

Hello hello! So to start off, I wanted to talk about something I'm really passionate about. And that's reading :DD SO I come from a family of crazy avid readers and I've been reading (and loving it) for as long as I can remember. It truly hurts my heart, my soul and my (insert whatever other body part you desire) when people say that they're not into reading. THUS to stop this reading-hater epidemic (amid this other epidemic, you know great time to pick up a new hobby eh??) I'm going to share some of my favourite books! Some are pretty popular, others are cute little hidden gems but all of them are amazing and have completely touched me! Hope you love them as much as I do ❤️❤️❤️
