    “It was only a smile, nothing more. It didn't make everything all right. It didn't make ANYTHING all right. Only a smile. A tiny thing.

Because when spring comes, it melts the snow one flake at a time, and maybe I just witnessed the first flake melting. - Amir”

    Khaled Hosseini
    “I want to tear myself from this place, from this reality, rise up like a cloud and float away, melt into this humid summer night and dissolve somewhere far, over the hills. But I am here, my legs blocks of concrete, my lungs empty of air, my throat burning. There will be no floating away.”

    Charlotte Eriksson
    “I am not a Sunday morning inside four walls
    with clean blood
    and organized drawers.
    I am the hurricane setting fire to the forests
    at night when no one else is alive
    or awake
    however you choose to see it
    and I live in my own flames
    sometimes burning too bright and too wild
    to make things last
    or handle
    myself or anyone else
    and so I run.
    run run run
    far and wide
    until my bones ache and lungs split
    and it feels good.
    Hear that people? It feels good
    because I am the slave and ruler of my own body
    and I wish to do with it exactly as I please”
