“In retrospect I can see that you gave me very little
and I tried to build an entire future with it.

You must understand, I had never been remembered
like that, before.

With purpose. Without begging for it.

I took what I was offered and ran.”
Caitlin Conlon, The Surrender Theory
“The wet dog of desire jumps into my bed and I let it.
I'll sleep next to anything if it means I won't be alone.”
Caitlin Conlon, The Surrender Theory
“There isn’t much that scares me more than my own heart, a monster of tenderness. I have an irrational fear that I’ll wake to find it perched at the foot of my bed, begging to be torn apart, consumed in the name of compassion. And that’s incredibly terrifying for a few different reasons but mainly because I’d do it. I’ve never needed an excuse to sacrifice myself for love. I’m a martyr for everything soft. I confess to you: I’d bleed for anything if it held me the right way. I confess: I have. I have.”
Caitlin Conlon, The Surrender Theory
