The Doctor: I said you were the most beautiful thing I'd ever known.
Idris: Then you stole me. And I stole you.

~Quotes from the show

Aqualung - Strange and Beautiful

I've been watching your world from afar,

I've been trying to be where you are,

And I've been secretly falling apart,

I'll see.

To me, you're strange and you're beautiful,

You'd be so perfect with me but you just can't see,

You turn every head but you don't see me.

I'll put a spell on you,

You'll fall asleep and I'll put a spell on you.

And when I wake you,

I'll be the first thing you see, lyricstop

And you'll realise that you love me.

Sometimes, the last thing you want comes in first,

Sometimes, the frist thing you want never comes,

And I know, the waiting is all you can do,

Sometimes...

I'll put a spell on you,

You'll fall asleep,

I'll put a spell on you,

And when I wake you,

I'll be the first thing you see,

And you'll realise that you love me.

I'll put a spell on you,

You'll fall asleep 'cos I'll put a spell on you,

And when I wake you,

I'll be the first thing you see,

And you'll realise that you love me, yeah...

Creepy but beautifully sung.

A Quoi Bon Dire

Seventeen years ago you said
Something that sounded like Good-bye:
    And everybody thinks you are dead
            But I.

    So I as I grow stiff and cold
To this and that say Good-bye too;
    And everybody sees that I am old
            But you.

    And one fine morning in a sunny lane
Some boy and girl will meet and kiss and swear
    That nobody can love their way again
            While over there
You will have smiled, and I shall have tossed your hair.

I should be writing a test right now. But it’s a hot Saturday afternoon, and so I instead spend my energy mooning over John Mayer.

And I am never getting over the way he sings

‘Damn baby
You frustrate me
I know you're mine all mine all mine
But you look so good it hurts sometimes’.

Read Jhumpa Lahiri’s Unaccustomed Earth. How on Earth she managed to win the Pulitzer still beats me. But anyhoo, I read the book knowing the fact that her previous short stories I read were, for a lack of better word, crap. On my defence, I should add that my office library only had that one book under Fiction.

I know I am missing something, but I don't exactly know what!

If constructive criticism is given in a destructive way, is it still constructive criticism?

Jelaluddin Rumi

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing,

there is a field. I'll meet you there.

When the soul lies down in that grass,

the world is too full to talk about.

Ideas, language, even the phrase each other

doesn't make any sense.

I feel restless distressed disturbed

The big dark void moves closer
And all I can see is black
Not the black found underneath blankets and inside closed eyes
That which goes away with one swift motion
But the black you see outside your doors and windows
That which like quicksand
Envelops and preys on you.
