(no subject)
you wanted the whole story and i'm telling you everything.
when my eyes opened the lights were dimmed.
all I could see were hands.
hands that fumbled and groped in the dark for something abstract.
something elusive and intangible.
something hallucinatory.
they were searching for something that wasn't there.
something lost in time years ago.
those were my hands i saw.
they were my hands.
the hands that of a girl who had a chance for an embrace and chose faith.
faith for something that died with chivalry and chastity.
there in the wrists of my collapsed body there were words.
words written in my flesh.
it said "piety doesn't save when love conquers all."
and you stood above me with a knife and a ostensible smile
