The late night quiet buzz
rings loud in my ears.
My eyes stare into the dark of my room,
I look at nothing, and think about everything.
My fan blows hot air,
the heat,

Every stifling breath is torture.
I yearn for the chill.

Just a few more to the door,
five,

I turn the knob am I'm out.
I'm free.

Her creamy, alabaster skin glows with confident. She is aloof, to say the least. I know everything about this woman, my grandmother, as well as myself, by this photograph. I am the spitting image of her. I know that I am much more than my sorry excuse of a mother. I know t

Dreams
A caustically fabricated memory sets a spark in the first exhalation of morning (afternoon?) and she has the urge to cry.
To think that dreams -nightmares- could hold her heart with such terrible claws (but the thoughts of him hold reigns so tightly on her back; he knows many pretty women, and it's only natural to worry after the undressing, the holding hands, the crying in front of him). To think that even sleep, once repose, could beckon tears and heart-shivers and immobility.
She ponders why, all of a sudden, sleep is frightening again.
Perhaps it's the empathy of her nature. She feels heart-wrenching guilt for moments long past; sh

Wanting and Having
It's been a while since he's let himself want something. Even longer since he's admitted to it.
She wishes to be one of the vast majority who give up on him after the first icy glare. But she's never been a part of any majority so why should she start now?
He just needs some sort of reaction—anything. So he is unnecessarily cruel to her, just like how he is with everyone. People are all the same. He always gets to them in the end. Part of him, the secret part, hopes that she doesn't let him get away with it.
She sees him at the coffee shop slipping a note onto the counter while the elderly man fumbles uselessly for change in his pock
