If I had not known your eyes
perhaps the day would be
easier to understand
gentler to me

If I hadnt memorized
the sound you make
while standing close to me
I might have filled my memory up
with august skies or july seas

but as it is my memory world
has little room for skies
all the space is taken up
remembering your eyes.

“A woman knows very well that, though a wit sends her his poems, praises her judgment, solicits her criticism, and drinks her tea, this by no means signifies that he respects her opinions, admires her understanding, or will refuse, though the rapier is denied him, to run through the body with his pen.”

― Virginia Woolf, Orlando

Bob Marley on Loving a Woman:



"You may not be her first, her last, or her only.
She loved before and she may love again.
But if she loves you now, what else matters?
She’s not perfect, you aren’t either,
and the two of you may never be perfect together
but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, and admit to being human and making mistakes,
hold onto her and give her the most you can.
She may not be thinking about you
every second of the day, but she will give you a part of
her that she knows you can break, her heart.
So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze
and don’t expect more then she can give.
Smile when she makes you happy,
let her know when she makes you mad,
and miss her when shes not there."

[Kobi]

Oh, the comfort - the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person - having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all right out, just as they are, chaff and grain together; certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and then with the breath of kindness blow the rest away.

~Dinah Craik, A Life for a Life, 1859
