The Gingerbread Boy Quotes

“A butterfly alit on my shoulder one day. Upset at the time, I brushed her away Figuring that butterfly had nothing to say. It lit on me again in my sleep. I brushed her away with one finalizing sweep …Then dreamed of horrors and wicked things in the deep. If that butterfly should ever alight on me again, I’d joyfully welcome her back and then Allow these ruined hearts to mend.”
