"But again, I'm warning you, All I am is a pathetic little beast. I'm scarred inside very deep, Scarred because of words for eternity. If you have the courage to take a peek, Then come and join the fraternity." -- Hiraeth (n.) A homesickness for a home to which you cannot return, a home which maybe never was. The nostalgia, the yearning, the grief for lost places of your past. ~~ Cover by @thepursuitofbeing ~~ Achievements: #1'st in The Mist Awards #2'nd in Galaxy Book Awards
