❛ 𝐢 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮. ❜ 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒆𝒗𝒆. ( @roseiate )
𝐀𝐃𝐎𝐑𝐍𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐎 𝐄𝐌𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐎𝐑, 𝐒𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃𝐒 ! crossing an old foe. one, so 𝚠𝚘𝚞𝚗𝚍𝚒𝚗𝚐. who gifted such a great 𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 thing. leveling a fall. only for her to arise once more. revealing in ash ; rebirth-ed among its cinders. mealy meagre flesh of 𝚙𝚊𝚙𝚎𝚛 forged to 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐥. tatted cotton draping’s turned to the finest of silks. poured out from pores, 𝐢𝐭 𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬. licked over skin, baptising flesh anew. 𝚙 𝚘 𝚠 𝚎 𝚛 ; notes of leather, spiced oud, sandalwood, luminous rich sweetened ambrosia’s of jasmine and roses. tampers a flesh, donning it in its 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐬𝐬.
mottled hues devour, masticating over 𝒔𝒐𝒇𝒕, 𝚜𝚒𝚕𝚔𝚎𝚗 skin, carved only with the most homely of creases ; to strands. a wild, 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭, mane. ebony curls twisted, forever taunting their unravel ; to frankly, 𝚊𝚝𝚛𝚘𝚌𝚒𝚘𝚞𝚜 clothing ; ( a 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐫, eve. seriously ? ) to hues, burning. grasping something 𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐢𝐝, wildfires ravage an almond, leaving it littered amongst an ashen smog - - she 𝚊𝚌𝚑𝚎𝚜 , to have 𝒘𝒂𝒕𝒄𝒉𝒆𝒅. as the spark left them those, 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘺, browns turned to 𝚐𝚕𝚊𝚜𝚜 ; mutilated mirrors of her own. as they always should have been. liquidated of all the life held dear ; the husband, the sheppards-pies, the boring little office. 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭-𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝. 𝚍 𝚛 𝚊 𝚒 𝚗 𝚎 𝚍 , just sad little scarlet drops left among the ruins.
( how it would have felt - would it be 𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒇 ? 𝚐𝚞𝚒𝚕𝚝 ? ) it’s all she thinks about. ( a fog betwix blonde strands. sat sorrowfully between ears. ) she’s, all she thinks about.
her sight. here, in flesh and bone 𝐫𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐬. wounds thought healed wretch to their ruin, festering in a crimson rot. a porcelain savaged by endless mottled marring, a hideous marbling slinked among skin. a buried 𝚊𝚌𝚑𝚎 ghosts. thought scatted among the ruins, it rears, at war amongst a ribcage. trudged from murky, inken depths. ❛ i love you. ❜ ❛ you dont understand what that means. ❜ 𝐢𝐭 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐬 ; a pulse slackens, its cause crumples. bowed under it’s chokehold.
would wounds lay 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝. sealed with plush pinkened, polished skin ? if she’d stayed. 𝚠𝚊𝚝𝚌𝚑𝚎𝚍 ? there’s a doubt. one more. and, one more. till they plague.
❝ eeee-ve. wouldn’t you say that we’re pretty 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧, by now ? ❞ a slavic tongue seeps through tones. catching on consonants, turning sounds guttural, and growling. lips lingering around the sound. ❝ we even 𝒎𝒂𝒕𝒄𝒉 - isn’t that 𝚛𝚘𝚖𝚊𝚗𝚝𝚒𝚌 ? ❞
lips don a parody. a sardonic, saccharine spliced satire of a 𝒔𝒎𝒊𝒍𝒆. a thing untouched, unplagued. light, bright, and 𝚑𝚘𝚗𝚎𝚢 𝚍𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚙𝚎𝚍.
