I’m trying to remember all of the bad things
So my heart stops hurting so damn much
The absence of you left this big gaping hole
A hole that keeps sucking, sucking, sucking parts of me away
Like I’ve misplaced too much of myself and I don’t know how to find it
Like parts of me are lost forever
Will that hole in my chest ever heal?
Or will my heart beat one beat off until the day I die?
Losing you was worse than I thought

I cannot remember the date
Of which I was last raped
I believe I was eight,
When my virtue was at stake
When my soul left its gate
When a serpent took my fate
No, I cannot remember when
But I do remember the sin
I remember the choice that was stolen
And the heart, which remains broken.

Since its first publication in 1813, Pride & Prejudice has remained a timeless love story. The characters we first fell in love with, Lizzy and Mr. Darcy, have lived on in our continual respect for Jane Austen’s early nineteenth-century romance novel. Centered around family, upbringing, society, love, pride, and prejudice: Austen took her readers into a world where female characters dominated.
The P&P fan base has only grow over the years, as mothers passed on the book to their daughters and friends shared with friends. After several TV and film renditions throughout the years, it was no surprise when the 2005 movie, starring Kiera Knightly, became an instant success in the UK and then after in the US.

I’m trying to tell you something!
But you won’t listen
Why can’t you see that my heart has a sting?
This burden, it has gone unforgiven!
The pain that it brings.
But, it has made me strong
because I was so young.
I want you to stop!
I think that you ought!
I wish you’d be caught!
Oh, how I should have fought!
But, I was only eight
and I took the bait!

This past semester, I got really into The Sound of Music…and I’m not ashamed to say it.
I was taking a film analysis class during the spring and noticed The Sound of Music on our syllabus for week number two. My professor introduced the film by saying, “You’re all probably wondering why we’re going to be analyzing The Sound of Music; it’s because when adjusted for inflation, The Sound of Music is the most successful film in cinematic history…and we need to know why.”
I live for this stuff.
