À Merveille.

À merveille: marvelously, splendidly, wonderfully.

Everyone I know either calls me Lola, Daisy, or plain old Lauren, but that's not as fun is it? I have decided happiness is a decision and life is so much more fun when you just don't give a fuck.

This is a collection. Of anything and everything in and on my mind.

Evening Star

- May 26 -

reluctantbuddha:

'Twas noontide of summer,
  And mid-time of night;
And stars, in their orbits,
  Shone pale, thro' the light
Of the brighter, cold moon,
  'Mid planets her slaves,
Herself in the Heavens,
  Her beam on the waves.
    I gazed awhile
    On her cold smile;
Too cold--too cold for me--
  There pass'd, as a shroud,
  A fleecy cloud,
And I turned away to thee,
  Proud Evening Star,
  In thy glory afar,
And dearer thy beam shall be;
  For joy to my heart
  Is the proud part
Thou bearest in Heaven at night,
  And more I admire
  Thy distant fire,
Than that colder, lowly light.
