I shall but love thee better after death


"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candlelight.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with a passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, -- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! -- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death."

-Elizabeth Barrett Browning

'coz there is only so much awesome you can handle



there's only so much you can miss
before we both collide
and there's only so much you can hide
before i corner you

and i still cannot understand how. .
when i never mean bad, and i never mean ill,
people put up faces and pretend.
shame !

for the first dinner in bombay..


the next first time i meet you is not going to be easy. I have met you a hundred times in past 8 months and i have said a hundred mean things to you every single time. Tonight when we actually sit, I will try not to quibble, for good times' sake.

They danced down the streets like dingledodies, and I shambled after as I've been doing all my life after people who interest me, because the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!"
