    Jandy Nelson
    “grief is a house
    where the chairs
    have forgotten how to hold us
    the mirrors how to reflect us
    the walls how to contain us

    grief is a house that disappears
    each time someone knocks at the door
    or rings the bell
    a house that blows into the air
    at the slightest gust
    that buries itself deep in the ground
    while everyone is sleeping

    grief is a house where no one can protect you
    where the younger sister
    will grow older than the older one
    where the doors
    no longer let you in
    or out”
    Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere

    Jandy Nelson
    “There were once two sisters
    who were not afriad of the dark
    because the dark was full of the other's voice
    across the room,
    because even when the night was thick
    and starless
    they walked home together from the river
    seeing who could last the longest
    without turning on her flashlight,
    not afraid
    because sometimes in the pitch of night
    they'd lie on their backs
    in the middle of the path
    and look up until the stars came back
    and when they did,
    they'd reach their arms up to touch them
    and did.”
    Jandy Nelson, The Sky Is Everywhere

    Sally Rooney
    “Maybe we're just born to love and worry about the people we know, and to go on loving and worrying even when there are more important things we should be doing. And if that means the human species is going to die out, isn't it in a way a nice reason to die out, the nicest reason you can imagine? Because when we should have been reorganising the distribution of the world's resources and transitioning collectively to a sustainable economic model, we were worrying about sex and friendship instead. Because we loved each other too much and found each other too interesting. And I love that about humanity, and in fact it's the very reason I root for us to survive - because we are so stupid about each other.”
    Sally Rooney, Beautiful World, Where Are You
