Until the sun rises in the west and sets in the east. Until the rivers run dry, and the mountains blow in the wind like leaves…
This picture is so triggering! These actors totally hit it with their expressions in this scene. It totally captures the desperation in being so in love but knowing it will never work out. Sometimes in life we fall in love but for whatever reasons we are not destined to be with that person for life. Things fall apart, people change, promises are broken, and as much as two people love each other if it is not in their stars to be together in this life, it will just not be so.

“
After great storms the calm returns
And pleasanter it is thereby.
Fortune likewise that often turns
Hath made me now the most happy.
Th’ heaven that pitied my distress
My just desire and my cry,
Hath made my languor to cease,
And me also the most happy.
Whereto despaired ye my friends?
My trust alway in him did lie,
That knoweth what my though(t) intends,
Whereby I live the most happy.
Lo! what can take hope from that heart
That is assured steadfastly?
Hope therefore ye that live in smart,
Whereby I am the most happy.
And I that have felt of your pain,
Shall pray to God continually
To make your hope your health retain,
And me also the most happy.
”
—
Thomas Wyatt.
This is supposedly about Anne, who he is said to have been in love with when they were both children; Anne’s motto was ‘The Most Happy’.

To Anne Boleyn
forgivehispride:
“This brings to mind a fact in astronomy, which is, that the further the poles are from the sun, notwithstanding, the more scorching is the heat. Thus is it with our love; absence has placed distance between us, nevertheless fervor increases- at least on my part.” -H.R Henry VIII

At every time I’ve always known
That you where there, upon your throne
