When I can look life in the eyes, grown calm and very coldly wise, life will have given me the truth, and taken in exchange - my youth.
Sara Teasdale
sara teasdale from memory: michael kissed me in the spring, and robert in the fall, but stephan(?) only looked at me and barely kissed at all.
robert's kiss was lost in jest and michael's lost in play, but the kiss in stephan's eyes haunts me night and day.
