Four years and everything was the same, except me.

I’ll tell you now. That silence almost beat me. It’s the silence that scares me. It’s the blank page on which I can write my own fears. The spirits of the dead have nothing on it. The dead one tried to show me hell, but it was a pale imitation of the horror I can paint on the darkness in a quiet moment.

Image
Some truths should perhaps be left unsaid. Some doors unopened. An angel once told me to let go of the ills I held too close, to let go of the flaws that shaped me.
Mark Lawrence
Image
All lives are tales. Some spread, and grow in the telling. Others are just told between us and the gods, muttered back and forth behind our days, but those tales grow too and shake us just as fierce.

Dark times call for dark choices. Choose me.

If you must run, have something to run toward, so it feels less like cowardice.
Mark Lawrence
Image
Sometime, It's easier to love someone with flaws you can forgive in return for them forgiving yours.
Mark Lawrence
Image
When you're in a dark place, and your light is going to run out before too long, you get on with things. It's a wonder to me how few people apply that same logic to their lives.

I've always felt that the placement of a man's testicles is an eloquent argument against intelligent design.

I maintain a balanced view of the world, but that balance is always in my favour.
