Park with a fountain in the moonlight, 1851. Black charcoal on green paper. — Carl Gustav Carus (German, 1789-1869)

nobody can find out how much i need love

the faint touch of spring, wings of a lapis dove

doomed, blooming tulips blanket my sight above

the ground on which i sit upon, alone, thereof

nobody can find out how much i need love

Find the people and places that make you feel at home.

Find the ones who take care of your soul and make you feel like you can be completely yourself around them.

Find the ones who light you up from the inside out and encourage you to be yourself.

Find the places where you feel at peace, the places that you could spend forever wandering and exploring.

Find the places that make you want to see even more of the world and the ones that make you happy to be alive ... And whenever you find one of these people or places, hold onto them so tight. Tell those people you love them often. Visit those places as much as you can. Never let go of those people or places because when you find peace and love and joy in this world, it is worth more than gold ... It is where you are meant to be."

The atoms of me

And the atoms of you,

Will be ink one day,

And paper and pen,

And then, at last,

We will be a poem,

A love song;

Some immortal verse.

Undine painted by John William Waterhouse (1849 - 1917)

I've seen my own heart darken

I've seen my own sun darkened

she adores pretty things and witty words

Sometimes I feel like I'm an immortal fish being gutted by a perseverant cook. He keeps digging up my insides, groaning as they regenerate, scalpel shaking in rage that I refuse to die. One day he will tire of my twitching, move on to better fish, and all this suffering will end.

I gasp for water but there's none.

An Introduction

Hello, this is sort of a basic introduction of me, and what this blog will upload. Obviously I will branch out further with time, as I change as a person, yet currently I would like to grab the right blogger's attention -

I am pearl, I am a very curious academic person and always open to learning new things. I want to start uploading on Tumblr to discuss my Interests with like minded people - I don't have many friends in my day to day life, and even fewer that I share my academic Interests with, so I'd be thrilled for people to interact with my blog.

She / Her | Queer | Marxist | Academic

Interests;

Literature; More specifically, Classics and Gothic. I find stories that examine the human condition to be very interesting! If you have suggestions for novels, I encourage you to leave me some.

Art; I sketch almost daily. I love the romantic period and Oil paintings in general..

Tv; I like philosophical movies and ones about girlhood. Also dark academia.

Favorites;

Artist; Lana del Rey

Novel; The Secret History

Movie; Heathers (1989)

I intend to upload my daily observations, opinions of Novels and other media, Communist content, and thoughts about my Academic interests - Classical literature and the Torah. This'll be my corner and if you'd like, you're welcome to stay.

Stay yourself, stay curious

I WANT A TYPEWRITER!!!

stay yourself, stay curious

about the girl that found the vintage copy of c&p...real...should have been u

Should have been ALL weirdly disturbed classic loving Tumblr girls... Should have been all..

(And thank you)

Ironically, the worst kind of love is the pure one; the kind which demands nothing.

Just a thought I had about how much I give with the full knowledge of no acknowledgment... I Thought Tumblr might identify.
