Don't think you have to be good because you're the only one left. Be as bad as you like.
Jenny DownhamShe'll understand what I already know - that death surrounds us all. And it tastes like metal between your teeth.
Jenny DownhamCal says that humans are made from the nuclear ash of dead stars. He says that when I die, I'll return to dust, glitter,rain. If thats true, I want to be buried right here under this tree. Its roots will reach into the soft mess of my body and suck me dry. I'll be re-formed as apple blossom. I'll drift down in the spring like confetti and cling to my family's shoes. They'll carry me in their pockets to help them sleep. What dreams will they have then?
