Oil and water

A combination impossible to mix.

Anger moved through your veins

Touched my skin that ingited bruises.

The piercing cold air fills my lungs and I exhale; watching the cloud of oxygen escape my lips. Each step I take into the void, the louder my heart starts to beat, feeling my entire body pulsate knowing I may not return....
