i've decided to continue that 'thing' of the day thing. and i say 'thing' because i don't want to restrict myself with what i put here. so today i might have byron and tomorrow ben hales. and while we're on the day thing, i didn't do one yesterday, so i shouldn't even make it thing of the 'day'. it'll just be: thing i feel like sharing with you today.

so without further ado, here is the thing i feel like sharing with you today:

Thus much and more; and yet thou lov'st me not,
And never wilt! Love dwells not in our will.
Nor can I blame thee, though it be my lot
To strongly, wrongly, vainly love thee still.

-Byron, Love and Death

this was taken from the last verse of Byron's last poem, 'Love and Death', which was written to a greek boy whom he was in love with. found this in a clex fic where clark had to ask all his friends and family what their favourite poem was. and this was lex's. (insert sarcastic 'no, really?') they get together in the end so it's all good.

when i get a car, i'm gonna name it. after you know who.

<< thing i feel like sharing with you today. how's that for terse and cogent? >>
