It's like walking on clouds, he said. It takes all your insecurities and spins them into whipped cream. whether whipped into sugar or whipped into submission, we will never know. but that blanket isolation-where will I go when it's swallowed? it's necessary for people like me. We alight on hydrangea petals like a sprinkling of ash and suddenly disappear into shattered glass. They say feelings such as mine will wreck minds, put a wrench in the construction that is happening between two people. One figment ventures to peep about my own development plans, but I bite my tongue and swallow the thought. Does the whipped topping permeating my words pass your lips still disguised? Or can you divine why it's there to begin with? I hope you know, he pleads. *I hope you know you're my biggest insecurity.
