Kill your darlings
Lines that didn’t make the final cut.
“Do you remember the night we hit the deer? Her shaded body easing out of the dark woods and us, still intoxicated from the night and each other, seeing her illuminated by the headlights too late”
--------------------------
“ I’m fascinated by my own face, my eyes too large and still red.“
--------------------------
“The car hit her. Her red fur glowed in the headlights. Everything around her was blackness and she was beautiful. She didn’t think it would happen. She’d had close calls before. She let the light wash over her and kept walking. He didn’t want to hit her, but she was in the way.”
---------------------------
“What was I compared to you? My eyes were an unchangeable brown, while tonight yours glistened a crystalline blue, and yesterday they were flecks of amber, and tomorrow they would be like moss, or slate, or the violet daze of twilight.”
----------------------------
‘When you came back to the car your eyes were not the same. In the hazy moonlight, they were black and filled you like something possessed.“
