“When I was younger
I thought I had superpowers
Thought if I sat real still and stared at a book
No one would be able to see me
I got so good at it
I forgot that I’m the only one playing the game
Sit still with a book or my head down
And you can go missing”
― Mahogany L. Browne, Chlorine Sky

“But maybe it is about finding someone whose heart is like a mirror, whose love can make you stand the sight of yourself.”
― Roshani Chokshi, The Last Tale of the Flower Bride

“They say having a child is like having your heart walk around outside your body.”
― Cookie Hiponia Everman, We Belong
