“From one branch, two azaleas blooming,
Fighting for a piece of the dawn.
The roots lie rotten, the leaves die weeping;
Come night, all the flowers are gone.”
Shen Tao, The Poet Empress

“I was ashamed at how thrilled I felt. For the first time, instead of cowering from my monster, I was walking at its side. For the first time, when it opened its foul, bloodthirsty jaws, it would not be to bite me but someone else.”
Shen Tao, The Poet Empress

Noelle W. Ihli
“All I knew was that life without her was a dark void. She was my best friend. My teammate. My family, even more than my parents, who I’d left behind the day I turned eighteen and saw only once in a blue moon. I wasn’t parentless. Not like Miley. But spending time with her was the thing that brought me to life, made me realize that the kind of love I got at home was halfhearted and finite. Drops of water in a bucket. Miley—and her mom, Jane—loved like the turquoise ocean I’d only seen in postcards. Warm and limitless.”
Noelle W. Ihli, Gray After Dark

“I am beginning to suspect,' he said, in barely a whisper, 'that you are not afraid enough of me.”
Shen Tao, The Poet Empress

“why are women always expected to love those who would hurt us? To take care of those who would use us”
Shen Tao, The Poet Empress
