       ˜”*°•. ☽ DEATHLESS SENTENCES ||  Accepting

A  SMILE  CREEPS  ACROSS  GLOSSED  LIPS,  nose scrunched as his thumbs graze the apples of her cheeks. She forgets she has a body sometimes, that she’s tied to the earth and woven into a cage of flesh and bone. She’s so far away from it sometimes that when she tumbles back, it’s almost a shock to feel something as trivial as a heartbeat. But yes, she feels it now. It skips a beat in her chest as he looks down at her with unfettered adoration.

              She imagines her body withering over the decades. Her flesh would grey and her eyes would fade. Her spine would curve and her pace would slow. Perhaps her teeth would fall from her skull as well. But her smile, that would never fade. Nor would the joy that filled her heart when she looked at him. 

    Ezra’s mouth places a kiss to his palm, twining her fingers around his to plant his hand firmly against her face.

he knelt in the brush, watching the creature he had struck from the sky. she had come into his forest without warning, for something he did not yet understand. he had struck without concern for them, only for his forest. only for the land that had give him life and purpose.

but the creature was not a monster. she appeared to be nothing he had ever seen before, with flowing golden hair and large wings. his arrow had snatched her from the air and pinned her to the soft soil.
