Aya

“My love for her burns within me like a flame; she is the child I carry within my heart. I am the lover of her soul; she will not be taken from me. I will be with Naomi, should the Lord tarry, until we lay down together and die. Even then, we will hold each other in death, breathless and asleep underneath the ice and snow and mud. We will hold each other and never be alone.”
― Amy Espeseth, Sufficient Grace

“Of two sisters
one is always the watcher,
one the dancer.”
― Louise Glück, Descending Figure
