Poe Avondet

“Sometimes I can feel my darkness, like a fragment of nerves inside of me somewhere, sparking my hate. I picture it moving throughout my body, the other cells letting it pass by, yielding to its master. It moves to my tongue when it wants me to spew beautiful, damaging words, it moves to my hands when it wants me to feel all it can take away, and it moves to my eyes to blind me from truly seeing the destruction I’ve done.”
― Piper Payne, Breathing Black

“There is something beautiful about a blank canvas, the nothingness of the beginning that is so simple and breathtakingly pure. It’s the paint that changes its meaning and the hand that creates the story. Every piece begins the same, but in the end they are all uniquely different.”
― Piper Payne

“The cruelty they speak exposes the wound in them, not the worth in you.”
― Poe Avondet

“Sometimes I think my scars are beautiful, but then I remember not everyone shares the same love of art.”
― Piper Payne, Breathing Black
