Batter My Heart


Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

Batter my heart, three person'd God; for, you
As yet but knock, breathe, shine, and seek to mend;
That I may rise, and stand, o'erthrow me, and bend
Your force, to break, blow, burn and make me new.

I, like an usurpt town, to another due,
Labour to admit you, but Oh, to no end,
Reason, your viceroy in me, me should defend,
But is captiv'd, and proves weak or untrue,
Yet dearely I love you, and would be lov'd faine,
But am betroth'd unto your enemy,
Divorce me, untie, or break that knot again,
Take me to you, imprison me, for I
Except you enthrall me, never shall be free,
Nor ever chast, except you ravish me.
-John Donne

What true love meant.

Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink

Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain;

Hey, rose, just born
Twin to a thorn;
Was't so with you, O Love and Scorn?Sweet eyes that smil

Without You

All these days and nights without you here,

It's a little bit more than I can bear.

No Such Thing As Happy Endings

The first night they meet

He knew it to be true

This girl who lied before him

Our New Love

From the first lingering glance

Shared by a pair of prying hearts

To the last diz

A Broken Heart

How do I mend a broken heart?

My entire world has fallen apart.

How do I find hop

Now We Are Six

When I was One,

I had just begun.

When I was Two,

I was nearly new.
