“On your worst days do not look in the mirror and call yourself pretty. Call yourself trying, call yourself surviving, call yourself learning how to get through a day, a week, a month or year. Call yourself still learning.”
― Meggie Royer
“A woman's first blood doesn't come from between her legs but from biting her tongue.”
― Meggie C. Royer, The No You Never Listened To
“Loving me will not be easy. Some days I will be a stuttering apology
and you won’t know how to handle all the things I’ve done wrong.”
― Meggie Royer
“I don’t wear a red cape.

I can’t scale buildings like a salamander or leap across canyons

twenty miles wide. I don’t have a huge S emblazoned across my chest.

My superpowers come from teaching myself how to survive

when all I wanted to do was be one of the people

that heroes are supposed to save.”
― Meggie Royer
“Just remember it’s okay if all you did today was breathe.”
― Meggie Royer
“Life is a photograph too, so thank you,

for not removing yourself from the picture just yet.”
― Meggie Royer
“We are all too fixed on wrecking ourselves rather than bettering ourselves.”
― Meggie Royer, Healing Old Wounds With New Stitches
“I want to look into a mirror that will love my own reflection harder than I hate myself.”
― Meggie Royer, Healing Old Wounds With New Stitches
“And hey, it’s nothing personal.

It’s just that a long time ago, when the men taught me my body

was a whetstone and they wanted nothing more than to be

sharpened on it, I decided I needed to save myself.

You never know, maybe I’ll see you around sometime.

Until then, I hope Heaven’s as beautiful as you said it’d be.”
― Meggie Royer
“Some days I will be a stuttering apology and you won't know how to handle all the things I've done wrong.”
― Meggie Royer
“The morning after I killed myself, I tried to unkill myself, but couldn’t finish what I started.”
― Meggie C. Royer
“I don’t just want to take your breath away. I want to rip it from your mouth and keep it locked away between my teeth. You can only have it back if you kiss me again.”
― Meggie Royer

“The morning after I killed myself, I watched the sun come up.

Each orange tree opened like a hand and the kid down the street pointed out a single red cloud to his mother.”
― Meggie C. Royer, Survival Songs
