The Kiss I was happier before the kiss, though I didn't know it at the time. At first, all my dreams were of happily ever afters, of riding of into the proverbial sunset with the one who could wake me. I was asleep, but somewhat conscious of the passage of time. I felt no pain, just a sort of longing for my old life, or even for a new life featuring the aforementioned proverbial sunset.After a time, the longing began to fade into more of a sense of boredom. What does one do with so much time to oneself? I thought, I dreamed, I remembered, I waited. I thought about the life I'd lived before.

Averted in shame
Resolutely, we turn our heads
Mumbling lipservice apologies
We’d love to help
But it’s not in the budget
Feeble excuses
Pock-marked and torn

Only for the privileged
Atrocities that fly in the face of
Liberty

Hands trembling, she smoothed her wrinkled shirt and made her way across the room to the dresser. She fumbled with the knob in the dark, and finally getting it open, plunged her hand into the deepest recesses of the drawer and fumbled about until she found what she needed. This would make her feel better...it always did. She made her way back to the bed, clutching her precious, her prize, her greatest comfort to her chest. She stroked the envelope before gently opening it to remove the fix she needed. The letters...they always cheered her up. WThoughts in the dark...for now by ~poproxncoke0485

Bat your eyes girl, be other worldly, seduce a stranger
Love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the night and love dares you to change our way of caring about ourselves
I am the god of Hellfire, and I bring you...
