The ones I loved fly as birds in the open sky above me. Soaring, weaving, calling to me to join them. I want so badly to follow them, but the seawater saturates my wings, making it impossible to lift them. The ones I hated have taken to the water, horrible scaled things that tear my salty flesh with needle teeth. Biting again and again. Dragging me beneath the surface (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
She’s really gone, then. The little girl with the back of her shirt sticking out like a duck tail, the one who needed help reaching the dishes, and who begged to see the frosted cakes in the bakery window. Time and tragedy have forced her to grow too quickly, at least for my taste, into a young woman who stitches bleeding wounds and knows our mother can hear only so much (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
And some small gnarled place inside me hated her for her weakness, for her neglect, for the months she had put us through. I had taken a step back from my mother, put up a wall to protect myself from needing her, and nothing was ever the same between us again (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
No more fear of hunger. A new kind of freedom. But what then... what? What would my life be like on a daily basis? Most of it has been consumed with the acquisition of food. Take that away and I’m not really sure who I am, what my identity is. The idea scares me some (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
I’d begun to think that he’d given up on me in the weeks that had passed. Or that he no longer cared about me. Hated me even. And the idea of losing him forever, my best friend, the only person I’d ever trusted with my secrets, was so painful I couldn’t stand it (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
But because two can play at this game, I stand on tiptoe and kiss his cheek. Right on his bruise (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
But if you want to find peace, you must first be able to hope it is possible (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
But after several hours, I go anyway, walking in silent sock feet, so as not to awaken the ghosts (Suzanne Collins Quotes)
