“I want to know what haunts me. The ghosts that obscure my face in the mirror, that speak in my head when I’m trying to think, that pull my hands back when I try to reach out. I know there’s something; I just don’t know what it is yet.”
― Kirsty Logan, Things We Say in the Dark

“Alone in my room, I don’t feel alone. It’s as if I have two shadows instead of one, and this second shadow doesn’t conform to my movements. It follows me, it gives the impression it will never leave me, but it does what it wants. I worry that in time I will do what it wants.”
― Christopher Pike, The Shadow of Death

“i know you are just now learning
to let yourself be tired
so do not fear the cricks
and cracks of you
that is the sound
of a house well-loved
well-learned
well-lived

finally asking its ghosts
to come out (of hiding) for tea”
― Morgan Nikola-Wren, Magic with Skin On

“Through love, all is possible.”
― Sarah J. Maas, House of Earth and Blood
