Whispers







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 everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
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



Happy Labour Day to all (: <3 recently, my teeth were hurting so much so that I couldn't sleep. And on top of that, they're now slightly misaligned ): stupid wisdom teeth!!! Sipping on cool Camomile tea is delightful.

Oh Summer, where are you?


P.S. been going through a Keira phase lately (in case you haven't noticed). Pretty, delicate features! Not loving the waif frame though it photographs beautifully.
