Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”

Some say in ice.

Is also great
And would suffice.”

“I lend everyone my ear,
But nobody my heart,
And I sure would like to change that,
But I don't know where to start,
I smile more to myself,
Than the world will ever see,
Because the only time my smile is real,
Is in my own company,
People don't know how I feel,
They never even ask,
It seems I have fooled them all,
They can't see past my mask,
If they were with me late at night,
When the world was still asleep,
Maybe I'd let them sort,
Through the secrets that I keep,
But when I wake at 2am,
Nobody is ever there,
And I learnt that why I hide my heart,
Is because no-one really cares.”
― Erin Hanson

Eşya bile: Damlardan kiremitler uçmalıdır, ağaçlar köklerinden sökülüp havada bir saniye içinde toz duman olmalıdır, camlar kırılmalıdır, hattâ yıldızlar düşüp gökyüzünde bin parçaya ayrılmalıdır filân... Zavallı mürâ-hik...
Nüzhet bana yalan söyledi.”
