"I get it, you know."

"The constant feeling that you were only a selfish mistake made on an ignorant impulse. The sickening feeling every time you look at yourself in the mirror, and try to convince the monsters that reside in your head that you're somehow something special. Those spontaneous moments when you start to figure that life will be okay and then it dawns on you that a wounded bird doesn't fly. And it never does, and we are stuck here like old gum on the bottom of those shoes you only wear once a year. Tears don't even form anymore and you're scared as shit because you can feel yourself draining every second of every damn day." 

Follow Layla And Oliver as they both fight to win the war within themselves while trying to save each other from the monsters inside them. Can Oliver make Layla see the beauty hidden behind all of her crazy? Will Layla make Oliver believe that he deserves the love he feels and so much more?
