STORY STARTER

Throw More

Throw all our plates at me.


I already saw the world in cherry red.


We shared a cherry, at our youngest days.


I remember, you know, when we’d hop in your dads car and drive off, driving off society’s limits.


I’d blank out, spacing out when I saw your face. You made me feel as if I was floating in space, the galatic wonder swirling me around, just like your hair did in the strong wind.


I guess I never heard you speak.


It was like shattering glass, causing bleeding every step I took towards you.


But shattering glass is a pleasant sound.


I warned you,


Even the prettiest dogs that bark get shot.


Your words wounded me deeply.


But your silence hurts even more.
