The dubberment dere of down and dales
Of wode and water and wlonk plaines
Bilde in me bliss, abated my bales
Forbidden my stress, destroyed my paines
Down after a strem that drightly hales
I bowed in bliss, bredful my branes
The firre I folwed those floty vales
The more strength of joye myn herte straines
As fortune fares theras ho fraines
Whether solace ho sende other elles sore
The wye to wham hir wille ho waines
Hittes to have ay more and more
More of wele was in that wise
Than I couth telle thagh I tom hade
For erthly herte might not suffise
To the tenthe dole of tho gladness glade
For thy I thoght that paradise
Was there other gain tho bonkes brade
I hoped the water were a devise
Between mirthes by meres made
Beyonde the brook, by slent other slade
I hoped that mote inerked wore
Bot the water was depe, I dorst not wade
And ever me longed ay more and more
More and more and yet well mare
Me liste to see the brook beyonde
For if hit was fair there I can fare
Well loveloker was the firre londe
Aboute me con I stote and stare
To finde a forth faste con I fonde
Bot wothes mo ywis there ware
The firre I stalled by the stronde
And ever me thoght I shokle not wonde
For wo there weles so winne wore
Thenne newe note me com on honed
That meved my minde more and more

The Martyr, Continued.
A once happy soul
faded to a ghost,
watching flashbacks
in the shadows.
A once happy soul
faded to a ghost,
watching flashbacks
in the shadows.
A once happy soul
faded to a ghost,
watching flashbacks
in the shadows.
A once happy soul
faded to a ghost,
watching flashbacks
in the shadows,
I was a once happy soul,
but I’ve faded to a ghost.
I’ll eternally watch flashbacks
playing in the shadows.
The faith I had for you
has buried me alive.
Is this how all love dies?
In echoes and screams.

i don’t dress like this for the male gaze
i dress like this for the old women who see me in public and vicariously relive their girlhood through me

I've heard a lot of dumbass takes about how a character/figure in medieval literature is clearly and definitively this historical person but the theory that the maiden in the Pearl poem was meant to represent Anne of Bohemia is stupidest fucking thing I've ever heard.

Anything you haven’t worked hard enough to obtain, you don’t put a lot of value on it.
