Flowers Quote by Grace Butcher

“my brain is many colors, vague, like massed flowers: total spectrum of petals beginning with black. I wear my costume inside like blood and bones, keep graphs of my ups and downs, discover people laugh more at my falls than at my flying. The moral of this story is: sad eyes need also tears.” quote by Grace Butcher
