this is the poem that i think inspired my last (morbid) post. it was put to music and our choir sang it last year. i recommend hearing it somewhere because it is absolutely gorgeous.
"There Will Be Rest"
There will be rest, and sure stars shining
Over the roof-tops crowned with snow,
A reign of rest, serene forgetting,
The music of stillness holy and low.
I will make this world of my devising
Out of a dream in my lonely mind.
I shall find the crystal of peace, – above me
Stars I shall find.
-Sara Teasdale (1884-1933, when she committed suicide)
