- EPIGRAPH -

I myself have seen this woman draw the stars from the sky; she diverts the course of a fast-flowing river with her incantations; her voice makes the earth gape, it lures the spirits from the tombs, send the bones tumbling from the dying pyre.

            — Catullus

"A garden grows from in between her ribs. Crawling vines clench around the lungs, and thorny roses pierce the heart. Oh, how she smiled, with blood in her mouth!"

 Oh, how she smiled, with blood in her mouth!"

I'm so excited about this?! I know I said I wouldn't upload any chapters until after I finished In Between, but I have so many ideas, and I just can't wait :)
