I just thought of something that Paul posted a few days ago. Its pretty apt for the occasion, I guess... so here it is:
The Burial of Love
"His eyes in eclipse,
Pale-cold his lips,
The light of his hopes unfed,
Mute his tongue,
His bow unstrung
With the tears he hath shed,
Backward drooping his graceful head,
Love is dead:
His last arrow is sped;
He hath not another dart;
Go–carry him to his dark deathbed;
Bury him in the cold, cold heart–
Love is dead.
O truest love! art thou forlorn,
And unrevenged? thy pleasant wiles
Forgotten, and thine innocent joy?
Shall hollow-hearted apathy,
The cruellest form of perfect scorn,
With languor of most hateful smiles,
For ever write,
In the withered light
Of the tearless eye,
And epitaph that all may spy?
No! sooner she herself shall die.
For her the showers shall not fall,
Nor the round sun shine that shineth to all;
Her light shall into darkness change;
For her the green grass shall not spring,
Nor the rivers flow, nor the sweet birds sing,
Till Love have his full revenge."
Lord Alfred Tennyson
I've been the king, I've been the clown. Now broken wings can't hold me down. I'm free again. The jester with the broken crown, it won't be me this time around to love in vain.

我喜欢打篮球的你。 我喜欢会发呆的你。 我喜欢弹吉他的你。 我喜欢吗我无聊的你。 我喜欢咬指甲的你。 我喜欢在电话傻笑的你。 我喜欢搞笑的你。 我喜欢犹豫不决的你。 我喜欢试穿牛仔裤五次的你。 我喜欢听我牢骚的你。 我喜欢这么多,这么多的你。 你又会把我放在你心中的哪里呢? 不知...
