Quotes by Meg Grehan  (?)

“Not all bad things
Are big bad things
Not all sad things
Are big sad things

Sometimes they just come and go
Just visitors
And we don’t need to be
Afraid of them”
Meg Grehan, The Deepest Breath

“Coming here was a mistake
I know it now
Suddenly
Although I think I probably knew
All along
Or else
I wouldn't have lied to my mum

Good ideas don't need lies
I think

I feel lost
In a way I've never felt lost before

I know exactly where I am
And how I got here
And how to get home

But here I am
In a corner
Lost lost lost

Here I am
In a corner
Surrounded by all the information
All the answers I could ever want
Lost lost lost”
Meg Grehan, The Deepest Breath

“I don't like feeling
Anything but
Love
About my mum

It doesn't feel right

But right now
I feel
So many
Things
About my
Mum

I feel love
Always love
But underneath
I feel sad
And a little
Disappointed
I feel worried
And anxious
And mostly
I feel
Distant

Like someone grabbed us
Each of us
And pulled and pulled
Until there was a gap
Where there's never been a gap
Until there was
Distance
Where usually
We were
Together
Side by side

Like someone
Pulled us apart
And I'm afraid
I'm afraid
That that person
Was me”
Meg Grehan, The Deepest Breath

“It's not that you should never love something so much that it can control you.
It's that you need to love something that much so you can never be controlled.
It's not a weakness.
It's your best strength.”
Patrick Ness, The Ask and the Answer

“She was never something waiting to be solved. All she is - all she's ever been - is a person trying to live a life.”
Nina LaCour, Everything Leads to You
