Beyond the Sea

by L.H. Cosway

“I’m a lost cause, Estella. Your God can’t save me. Nor anyone else’s.” There was a piercing look in his eyes now. “You’re not a lost cause, just a lost soul. And souls are always capable of being saved.”

This house really was haunted, but not with the dead.

Fighting fire with fire would burn the world. The same thing could be said for cruelty. Having the courage to be kind in the face of it was the only thing that could stop its spread.

I’m scared that the things I believe are righteous are in fact irrational, but my head is too fucked to know the difference.”
