Withered Quotes

“…love grown dutiful is love grown old
a withered cupid faltering at the bow…”
― Lenore Kandel, Collected Poems of Lenore Kandel

“Tiredness falls off like shriveled snakeskin, it will hang over the doorway and wait for me until the end of the day. Hang and wait to engulf my withered body, wrap me up and crush.”
― Emma Glass, Rest and Be Thankful
