she  reeks  of  honey         ⎯⎯⎯       of  the  summer  that  grows  hot  and  heavy,  stifling  underneath  cruel  skies  that  suck  life  from  the  earth  and  leave  it  barren.  dry  grass  prone  to  a  spark,  to  the  act  of  kindling  at  the  slightest  warm  and  tender  touch.  he  breathes  fire  when  he  laughs.  hides  it  behind  his  hand,  but  finds  that  his  own  scent  isn't  enough  to  cover  the  smell  of  honey  and  flowers  in  bloom.  and  what  a  tragedy  that  is.

❝  i  have  a  tendency  to  overwater  my  plants.  ❞  speaks  the  bitter  truth  carelessly.  love  with  sharp  teeth  and  a  forked  tongue  is  nothing  short  violence    ⎯    the  tender  act  of  drowning     ⎯    but  with  strong  roots  and  a  tendency  to  regrow.  ❝  they  all  die  within  months.  ❞
