T.S. Eliot
beyondstyx:
Δέδυκε μὲν ἀ σελάννα καὶ Πληίαδες· μέσαι δὲ νύκτες, παρὰ δ᾽ ἔρχετ᾽ ὤρα· ἔγω δὲ μόνα κατεύδω. The sinking moon has left the sky, The Pleiades have also gone. Midnight comes - and goes, the hours fly And solitary still, I lie.

– The Wise Man’s Fear by Patrick Rothfuss (via infiniteroses)

– Masaoki Shiki (via meanderingwind)

– Sylvia Plath (via mirroir)
