Pretty Girls Don't Bleed by Emily Allison - HTML preview

earthly -

once, when the

timing was just right,

i felt my feet

lift off the ground.

it was brief,

just for a moment

suspended in time,

but it happened.

i was tied to

our planet in such a

deep and rich way that

earth blew me afloat.

and as i stood on

that mountain, that hill,

towering above others,

i felt as if i

had been filled with

helium that left me

gasping for more.

and the second my

bare feet touched the

dirt again,

i felt that

link dissipate.

it was gone.

and i hope to

the earth herself

that i can

find that connection

once again.

our clothes

lay in a

pile our clothes

lay in a

pile on the

floor.

i wish i had

enough strength to

dress not only

me, but the

broken body you

presented to me

last night.
