IX. He can almost forget. For extremely brief periods of time, he forgets and the sharp pain in his chest eases. He worries about the future, worries about forgetting for larger and larger spans of time. He doesn't want to forget what he's lost.
IX. He can almost forget. For extremely brief periods of time, he forgets and the sharp pain in his chest eases. He worries about the future, worries about forgetting for larger and larger spans of time. He doesn't want to forget what he's lost.
And he's lost a lot. He's lost his partner and friend. But there are other things, subtle things. He's lost his faith in himself. He's lost the trust of those around him. He's lost the ability to meet his own eyes in a mirror, to not flinch away from the image of what he's become.
What about that rhyming poetry bad-wrong-thing you wrote with Creative Writing Group in the Brigantes?
