― Franz Kafka, Letters to Milena

“Reasons"

I wish I knew why he left. What his reason were. Why he changed his mind.

For all these years, I have turned it over in my head—all the possibilites—yet none of them make any sense.

And then I think, perhaps it was beacause he never loved me. But that makes the least sense of all.”
― Lang Leav

“He walked away
from the sun
to sit
with a candle,
he walked away
from the moon
to sit
with the night

“You left us.'

Us. Not Tamlin. Us. The words echoed into the dark, toward the howling wind and lashing snow beyond the bend.

'I told you that day in the woods: you abandoned me long before I ever physically left.' I shivered again, hating every point of contact, that I so desperately needed his warmth. 'You fit into the Spring Court as little as I did, Lucien. You enjoyed its pleasures and diversions. But don't pretend you weren't made for something more than that.'

His metal eye whirred. 'And where, exactly, do you believe I will fit in? The Night Court?'

I didn't answer. I didn't have one.”
― Sarah J. Maas, A Court of Wings and Ruin

“I dared to love your monster.
The wolf that gnashed its teeth.
I held it tightly in my arms.
Gently rocked it back to sleep.
But you simply were not ready
For a life without the beast,
And so instead, you walked away,
Choosing chaos over peace.”
― Christie L. Starkweather
