Layers



''A person
is never as quiet or unrestrained as they seem,
or as bad or good,
as vulnerable or as strong,
as sweet or as feisty;
we are thickly layered,
page lying upon page,
behind simple covers.
And love - it is not the book itself, but the binding.
It can rip us apart
or hold us together.
Layers,
by their nature,
are fragile things.''

Deb Caletti
