Shakespeare & Me & Gin Blossoms (Week 16)

Sonnet 30

…

Willy `•.

“When to the sessions of sweet silent thought…
I summon up remembrance of things past,
I sigh the lack of many a thing I sought…”

…

Gin Blossoms >¡<

“My fear pretend… that I’ll never be in love again… It’s real to me.. but not like these fools… and not like this scene”

…

Me ’.,°~

i don’t break loud—
quiet knees down—
soundproof tears—
’til i meet ground.

…

until i fall away

…

Job 16:20 (KJV)

“My friends scorn me…
but mine eye poureth out tears unto God…”

Shakespeare & Me & Florida Georgia Line (Week 14)

A Midsummer Night’s Dream…

…

Willy `•.

“Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is wing’d Cupid painted blind.”

…

FGL ¡¡`’.-

“my love is…
never gonna run dry, never gonna come up empty… now until the day I die,
unconditionally…
You know I’m always gonna be here for ya
No one’s ever gonna love you more than
God, your mama, and me…”

…

Me `’.,°~

Paint my heart to stay-
the pyro kind…
burning red and flame…

…

Song of Solomon 8:6–7

“Set me as a seal upon your heart…
for love is strong as death…
Many waters cannot quench love…
neither can floods drown it…”

…

Ecclesiastes 4:12

“A cord of three strands is not quickly broken…”
