love after love
The time will come when, with elation,
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other's welcome,
and say
sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger
who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread.
Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you all your life...
Take down the love
letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs,
the desperate notes, peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit.
Feast on your life.

oh harry potter. i truly love him.
I read no less than 8, 700 plus page fantasy novels this semester. Sad. It's what I do.
I could read all day.
I sometimes get in this place where I just want to read Harry Potter over and over.
I have to force myself to stop and read new books.
Any fantasy suggestions?
