    Frank Herbert
    “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.”

    Jay Asher
    “Soul Alone by Hannah Baker

    I meet your eyes
    you don't even see me
    You hardly respond
    when I whisper
    hello
    Could be my soul mate
    two kindred spirits
    Maybe we're not
    I guess we'll never
    know

    My own mother
    you carried me in you
    Now you see nothing
    but what I wear
    People ask you
    how I'm doing
    You smile and nod
    don't let it end
    there

    Put me
    underneath God's sky and
    know me
    don't just see me with your eyes
    Take away
    this mask of flesh and bone and
    See me
    for my soul

    alone”
