    Sara Teasdale
    There Will Be Stars

    There will be stars over the place forever;
    Though the house we loved and the street we loved are lost,
    Every time the earth circles her orbit
    On the night the autumn equinox is crossed,
    Two stars we knew, poised on the peak of midnight
    Will reach their zenith; stillness will be deep;
    There will be stars over the place forever,
    There will be stars forever, while we sleep.”
    Sara Teasdale, Dark of the Moon

    Rainer Maria Rilke
    “Extinguish my eyes, I'll go on seeing you.
    Seal my ears, I'll go on hearing you.

    without a mouth I can swear your name.

    Break off my arms, I'll take hold of you
    with my heart as with a hand.
    Stop my heart, and my brain will start to beat.
    And if you consume my brain with fire,
    I'll feel you burn in every drop of my blood.”
    Rainer Maria Rilke
