I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead;
I lift my lids and all is born again.


"Mad Girl's Love Song" (1953) from Collected Poems (1981)

Sylvia Plath Quotes

I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again.

I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again.

I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again.

I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my lids and all is born again.
