even too much Is nOT ENOUGH

Even if it went only as far as your lips,
Even if it just brushed the corner of your mouth,
WOULD BE SWEET ENOUGH.
But europa pillages your mouth
And sucks your soul
Right out of your fingernails.
(RUFINUS)

**However long it lasts,love never lasts long enough**

I don't want anything to come between us:
Even that thin fabric you wear
Fells to me like the
WALLS OF BABYLON.
(PAULOS SILENTIARIUS)

EVERY LOVE SHOULD BE PALE:
THIS IS LOVE'S SPECIAL HUE.
(OVID)

She has given half of herself to desire,
And half to Chastity.
In the wasteland between the two,
I loiter palely.
(PAULOS SILENTIARIUS)
