the River of forgetfulness

My hours are married to Shadows....

“In the hours they spent chewing my bones, I grew a stone for my heart, and poisoned the rivers that ran through me. I studied the bloodless moon.”

Mother,

I have pasts inside me I did not bury properly.

Some nights,

your daughter tears herself apart yet heals in the morning.
