Poor, sweet creature
She can only hurt herself behind locked doors
She is ill
She is sick
She must be quarantined
For her own good as well as others'
She couldn't handle the excitement of my world
But if I keep her locked away
No one has to know she is the company I keep
No one has to hear her weep
Her mind cannot be saved
But I can save her soul
That is why I care for her
More a ward than a lover
My bride need never learn of her
This unchaste lunatic in the attic
Jane Eyre.
