“Afraid to Love
I turn away
and close my heart—
to the promise of love

to not be caught,
in what is not

To never do
the things I've done
that once had led
to my undoing.”
― Love & Misadventure

“She opens her eyes and wipes her hands together as if to say enough of that. Then she reconsiders and adds a final appeal. “Please don’t die. I can understand why you’d want to, but think about this: If you die, there’s going to be one of those cheesy Princess Diana memorials at school, where everyone puts flowers and candles and notes next to your locker.” She wipes away a renegade tear with the back of her hand. “I know you’d hate that kind of thing.”
