Until she was slain,
The culprit being the clown,
Stuffed down a drain,
Without her mane,
Little Jane was cut down.”

Of evil and woe,
On his way to school, was little Joe,

His bastard tormentor had cut his throat.”

“Sometimes we'd sit on that bench for hours, talking about nothing much and blowing smoke rings into the air, and we'd see them teetering past, stumble-drunk after closing time with their brown paper bags and late night vinegar running down their arms and the lack of kindness everywhere. And the girls, panda-eyed and lonely, hitching their bravado to their short skirts, were telling themselves that this was living. We said we would never be them. But there was one boy who had kind eyes. His hair was the colour of the sand and his smile promised everything. I told you he wasn't like the rest, but you didn't want to hear it.”
― Máire T. Robinson, Your Mixtape Unravels My Heart

“Ele havia voltado.
Quando seus olhares se chocaram, eu podia jurar que senti um ar quente me tocar. Seus olhos pareciam o sol líquido querendo invadir, a todo custo, uma noite perfeita.


He was back.
When their eyes met, I could swear that I felt a gust of warm air. His eyes looked like molten suns trying to invade, by any means necessary, a perfect night.”
― Hayanna Tisserand, Amor à Primeira Vista
