"Sometimes I’m terrified of my heart; of its constant hunger for whatever it is it wants. The way it stops and starts."
Edgar Allan Poe

“Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing,
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before…” - Edgar Allan Poe

From childhood’s hour I have not been
As others were - I have not seen
As others saw - I could not bring
My passions from a common spring -
‘Alone’
