John Keats, from The Complete Poems and Selected Letters; “Endymion,” (via violentwavesofemotion)

The woods enclose. You step between the first trees and then you are no longer in the open air; the wood swallows you up. (…) Once you are inside it, you must stay there until it lets you out again (…)

Angela Carter, from The Erl-King in “The Bloody Chamber And Other Stories” (via adrasteiax)

“I came from the sea and to the sea / I would return, to be immersed in her story, / ever lost and everlasting.”

— Nina Cassian, from Life Sentence; “Evolution” (via seaymphea)

“My brother used to ask the birds to forgive him; that sounds senseless but it is right; for all is like the ocean, all things flow and touch each other; a disturbance in one place is felt at the other end of the world.”

— Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Brothers Karamazov

I went to the beach with my 1957 Kodak Pony IV and all my photos came back super hazy and old-looking. It is okay if you want to pretend I took these is 1957

Yesterday ,which was dreamlike and smelled like honeysuckle

Lilac and star and bird twined with the chant of my soul, There in the fragrant pines and the cedars dusk and dim.
