So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee

I wanted to draw some pretty clothes today so I decided to draw Selah! Subridens only other childhood “friend” aside from Sonnet and daughter of the Alaid Grand Magistrix Scelestia 🌑🌌✨

She’s a bit spoiled but she means well.

How love came in I do not know,
Whether by the eye, or ear, or no;
Or whether with the soul it came
(At first) infused with the same;
Whether in part ’tis here or there,
Or, like the soul, whole everywhere.

- Robert Herrick, 'Of Love : A Sonnet'

All you ever get from the sonnet is the count of the fallen man,
Every calling cost made to your heart.

The worst was this, my love was my decay."

“Intensity, maddest propensity

Have I, for you, to feel your Midas touch

To reach across seas, enact chemistry

My mind and heart, desiring far too much…

White heat, hottest heat, I burn uncontrolled

Your touch hath turned my heart to whitest gold”
