    Jennifer Salaiz
    “Was I bitter? Absolutely. Hurt? You bet your sweet ass I was hurt. Who doesn't feel a part of their heart break at rejection.

    Charlotte Eriksson
    “So I am not a broken heart.
    I am not the weight I lost or miles or ran and I am not the way I slept on my doorstep under the bare sky in smell of tears and whiskey because my apartment was empty and if I were to be this empty I wanted something solid to sleep on. Like concrete.
    I am not this year and I am not your fault.
    I am muscles building cells, a little every day, because they broke that day,
    but bones are stronger once they heal and I am smiling to the bus driver and replacing my groceries once a week and I am not sitting for hours in the shower anymore.
    I am the way a life unfolds and bloom and seasons come and go and I am the way the spring always finds a way to turn even the coldest winter into a field of green and flowers and new life.
    I am not your fault.”
    Charlotte Eriksson, You're Doing Just Fine

    واسيني الأعرج
    “كم أحبك وكم تزداد بُعدًا في هذه الدنيا الظالمة. شيء ما يقودني نحوك بشكل أعمى كلما اتخذت قرارًا بتركك وبعدم الحديث معك نهائيًا. أريد بالفعل أن أرتاح منك وأن تتخلص منّي نهائيًا لكي نعرف كيف نعيش. ماذا فعلت لي؟ ما سرك؟ ماذا أكلتُ من يدك أو من جسدك أو من روحك؟ أشتهيك إذ أتركك. أخاف عليك من حماقاتي وارتباكاتي وأنا معك. لا أعرف لماذا أفتح أبواب الكوابيس والأحلام وأفتش عنك في أكثر الزوايا ظلمة علّني أجدك وأوشوش في أذنك: أحبك.”
    واسيني الأعرج, أنثى السراب
