“I kept you so well, buried beneath the darkest shame and stilled with filthy lies. Perhaps I should have dug deeper.”

“I have licked the fire and danced in the ashes of every bridge I ever burned. I fear no hell from you.”

“Sometimes love is nothing more than a sticky web; illusions spun from clever minds and bitter hearts.”

“She is of the strangest beauty and the darkest courage, and when she walks with intent the earth trembles beneath her feet.”

“Life is just a slide. Back and forth between loving and leaving, remembering and forgetting, holding on and letting go.”
