Unfortunate? Unforeseen? How a future life unfolds. Unmade, unloved. Unlit. Unwound.
Merciless moments. Their memories mashed mindlessly into the mud. Barbs and barbarism crippling and cutting to the core.
You slip slowly, slinking, sidling sadly into the shadows.
Darkness descends, days drift by in a doze.
Time trudges and turns. A timely toss is taken.
The coin climbs, circling against circumstance.
YOU WIN.
Love lingers in least looked locations. Hearts thawed, filled full from frozen formation.
A tender touch transforms.
The brittle, broken bones begin to bind.
Sunshine smiles against sallow shores.
Laughter leaps from lip to lip. Loving looks linger.
Doodles become Da Vinci. Darkness a dawn. Dourness a day trip. Detriment to divine.
Deep breath... and dive.
