'We leaned up against the wall, and I had no idea what was coming next.'
Write this as the opening or closing line to your story, in any genre.
Rain and Poetry
Come, crush my thirsty lips
under the weight of kisses,
so, when I lean upon this wall
I feel no shame…
Come, bite my naked skin
with your sharp fingers,
so all the traces that you draw
will speak of lust…
Come, lay me down in tears
that seem eternal,
so I forget your painful crime
of killing love…
Yours is my being,
Mine is your mistake,
Take me inside this curse
that you call “life”,
Breath fire, bathe in storms,
and do whatever,
don’t ever set me free!
We leaned up then against the wall,
you never told me why,
and I had no idea
what’s coming next.
For me, it’s only rain
and poetry.
