Authorās Note
Intruders: noun /inĀ tru dÉz/
This one is for a girl who always saves a Boy Who Lived; for delicate and invisible boys; lost souls with praying mothers (even a heathen like me has a praying mother); those who raise themselves in a world that doesnāt care whether they live or die, the progeny of forgotten legends; those who have lost too much and have nothing but themselves; for young love and old heartbreak; the ones who fall asleep with a man and wake up next to a monster; for monster slayers and makers; for those who were spat out onto the streets; for the weird, the wonderful ā¦ and us, who never see ourselves in the stars but die in seas searching for them. You are everything.
