        heaven
finally breaking free of the suspension that never felt like home.

By then we chased each other still, so rash our thoughts became obfuscated and made the fuzzy outlines in this foolish place seem sane We became doggedly timid. Fractious sensation itching in preachy rapture. The sideways hormones obliging all yellowness to blush green in twilight-ed circumscription. It was then she finally took my hand. Our clasping silhouettes resonated to be the rhy
