HER EYES REFLECT THE MOON LIKE SWIMMING POOLS . like rosemary & thyme haunted by the darkness between the stars / she is somehow frightening and alluring all at once . LOOK INTO MY EYES AND WHAT DO YOU SEE ? it is death , it is calamity , it is the divine collapsing and humanity swallowing their gods like sleeping pills . and so who are we to linger here now ? the old gods are all sleeping / we’ve killed them already , we are seen by the stars alone ---- they preside over us with their silent vigil / do they mourn who we are , or who we used to be ? she turns towards him , THEY ARE THE WITNESSES OF THIS UNION / IT IS UNHOLY BUT IT IS PURE she will appear calloused & careless in his eyes , the cold crowds in against the bareness of her skin and yet she does not flinch ( i spent my whole life in ice , i was swaddled in snow from the moment of my birth . there is no chill that can send shivers down my spine none except for the sound of your voice ) perhaps she appears feral , something closer to a wild animal , with crimson dripping from a gaping maw / it smiles like wolves come home to roosted hens . her voice is a knife stabbing through the air , it demands attention LOOK AT ME / SEE ME / AM I THE WOMAN YOU SEEK ? she stands , her work forgotten for the moment , sightless ---- she stares into the shards of his soul ❝ what , did you think you were the only killer in this relationship ? ❞ / @rippredom
