mythical being of folklore and romance ✨ I follow back all hues! #illhueminati

I grow so tired I almost cease to care, and yet I would that he might come once more


if he could know my songs are all for him at silver dawn or in the evening glow, would he not smile & think it but a whim if he could know?


but now—but now—how shall I stand alone, knowing the light, the hope of me is gone?


I hid the love within my heart, and lit the laughter in my eyes, that when we meet he may not know my love that never dies


but now that he has gone his way, I miss the old sweet pain, and sometimes in the night I pray that he may come again


he broke my sleep with sorrowing, and shook my dreams with tears, and when my heart was fain to sing, he stilled its joy with fears


love entered in my heart one day, a sad, unwelcome guest; but when he begged that he might stay, I let him wait and rest


when I talk with other men I always think of you— your words are keener than their words, and they are gentler, too


a wind is blowing over my soul, I hear it cry the whole night through— is there no peace for me on earth except with you?


my soul lives in my body's house, and you have both the house and her


[I need more poem accounts to follow 😢] #illhueminati


I am the still rain falling, too tired for singing mirth


I have no riches but my thoughts, yet these are wealth enough for me; my thoughts of you are golden coins stamped in the mint of memory


It is enough for me by day to walk the same bright earth with him; enough that over us by night the same great roof of stars is dim


soon we two, so warm and eager, will be as the gray stones in the grass


come with arms outstretched to take me, come with lips pursed up to cling


the years went by and never knew that each one brought me nearer you; their path was narrow and apart and yet it led me to your heart


places I love come back to me like music, hush me and heal me when I am very tired


oh, because you never tried


I caught life back against my breast and kissed it, scars and all
