...and there I shut her wild, wild eyes
I knew my way in the darkness or in the light.
Shirley Jackson, We Have Always Lived in the Castle
You scared me, he said
I study my hands
Should I smile or cringe, hearing it again
A curse, a blessing, how should I know
I live with it all my life
You feel spellbound
But all I do is being me
In all honesty
