I love people. Everybody. I love them, I think, as a stamp collector loves his collection. Every story, every incident, every bit of conversation is raw material for me. My love’s not impersonal, yet not wholly subjective either. I would like to be everyone, a cripple, a dying man, a whore, and then come back to write about my thoughts, my emotions as that person.

~ The journals of Sylvia Plath (1950-62) Entry for July 1950

Darcy will be like 'I know a spot' and takes you on a rollercoaster ride of his feelings from criticising your family to confessing his undying love for you

Darcy will be like 'I know another spot' and takes you on a long walk during sunset to tell you that he still loves you ardently

~ MARCH ~

Cloudless blue skies, crispy winds, ruffling papers, twinkling stars, blushed cheeks, messy hair, mild sunshine, blooming wild flowers, popsicles, empty beaches, summer in the light, winter in the dark

When Emily Dickinson said, "I am out with lanterns, looking for myself." Never have I ever been punched in the gut so fiercely by a single sentence.

John Keats - famous quotes but with the word 'babe' at the end :

A thing of beauty is a joy forever babe

Touch has a memory babe

I have so much of you in my heart babe

Love is my religion babe

The last of your kisses was ever the sweetest babe

My love has made me selfish, I cannot breathe without you babe

O, that I were a glove upon that hand ,That I might touch that cheek !

His feelings are literally racing 78652 mph

It is so disturbing and pretty that I should save a little piece of my heart locked in with the wholesomeness of a high spirit that makes me want to run into woods, wear tulip hats, drink tea of wild flowers, make little mushroom friends, dance with fairies and live in peace

I used to believe that to be in love is all about yearning and being confused some times but when Shakespeare said- Love is heavy and light, bright and dark, hot and cold, sick and healthy, asleep and awake- its everything except what it is ! , I started believing that it is about cherishing and being confused ALL THE TIMES
