“Shattered glass, drops of blood on the dancefloor. Glitter in my wounds. I didn't notice how badly I was bleeding. People gathered to watch the spectacle but I didn't stop dancing and I didn't care who watched.”
Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited

“I want to love the world even if others hate it. I want to save the world even if others more powerful destroy it.”
Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited

“Even if there are billions of lights dying alone in the sky, we are reborn forever.”
Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited

“I hoped you would spare me but you were looking right at me. I did not need to bloom for you to see I was beautiful.”
Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited

“Our hearts were glowing. Streaming RED. As he pulled the trigger... Headshots. Ripped apart. Unrecognizable. Faces that had been kissed. Pulverized. Brothers and sisters. Without a pulse... We were finished, utterly destroyed. And they were satisfied that they had shattered our pride.”
Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited

“I didn't know when I first saw you bloom it would be the last time I felt such passion. So much that I damaged your petals and tore you by the root.”
Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited

Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited

“I was so afraid when I saw you. I did not get the chance yet, to bloom.”
Austin-Alexius Klein, Harm Unlimited
