The Definition of Love


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

My love is of a birth as rare
As 'tis for object strange and high;
It was begotten by Despair
Upon Impossibility.

Magnanimous Despair alone
Could show me so divine a thing
Where feeble Hope could ne'er have flown,
But vainly flapp'd its tinsel wing.

And yet I quickly might arrive
Where my extended soul is fixt,
But Fate does iron wedges drive,
And always crowds itself betwixt.

For Fate with jealous eye does see
Two perfect loves, nor lets them close;
Their union would her ruin be,
And her tyrannic pow'r depose.

And therefore her decrees of steel
Us as the distant poles have plac'd,
(Though love's whole world on us doth wheel)
Not by themselves to be embrac'd;

Unless the giddy heaven fall,
And earth some new convulsion tear;
And, us to join, the world should all
Be cramp'd into a planisphere.

As lines, so loves oblique may well
Themselves in every angle greet;
But ours so truly parallel,
Though infinite, can never meet.

Therefore the love which us doth bind,
But Fate so enviously debars,
Is the conjunction of the mind,
And opposition of the stars.

-Andrew Marvell

There Is Always Hope In Friendship

It was a day in the life

Full of sadness and strife.

You never thought you'd make

A Thought True To You

Roses are red,

Violets are blue.

Sugar is sweet,

And I love you.

Lost
I thought it was a dream, I thought it wasn't real
But pain really hurts and its really how I fee

Feelings About Him

Peace and love,

his kiss is soft as a dove.

He makes me smile all the time

This Is Your Time

This is your time

to no longer be who you were,

to rise from the embers,

Live, Love, Laugh

Live, love, laugh,

play, fight, cry.

Time seems short when it's just you and I,

zindagi kabhi hasati hai

Zindagi kabhi hasati hai, kabhi rulati hai,

Kabhi khushi deti hai, kabhi gam de jaati hai

Friendship Is The Best Ship Of All

Friendship is priceless

And can never be forgotten.

Friendship is timeless
