    William Blake questions whether talking or writing about love actually serves to diminish it. He suggests that love exists best in total darkness and obscurity, and that bringing it out into the light through language and discussion may be the quickest path to its negation. Blake posits that true love resides in a place outside of time where clocks do not tick and the sun never sets.

    LOVE:

    Words sully…
    To talk of love is to negate it.
    The moment men took to paper and pulpit for love,
    Is the moment she was murdered.
    Love.
    What we know to be love is in fact its mourning.
    Our ways are backward, yet we know it to be otherwise.
    We are like, flowers which bloom in total darkness and wilt under the
    Sun’s splendour.
    Talk of love, is there a faster way to its negation?
    So, where are you Love?
    I am here, where the Clocks no longer tick, and the Sun never sets.

    — William Blake
