Lauren DeStefano
Bet you never eat, he says. Bet you drink up the oxygen like it's butter. Bet you can go for days on nothing but thoughts.
Lauren DeStefano
A strange thing, words. Once they're said, it's hard to imagine they're untrue.
Lauren DeStefano
We are stronger than we've credited ourselves to be. We have been the victims and the witnesses. We have said a lifetime of good-byes.
Lauren DeStefano
It's the silence I imagine in the rest of the world, the silence of an endless ocean and uninhabitable island, a silence that can be seen from space.
