25ii.

Occasionally she would take the feeling out from her chest.

Like lilies. Cold and sweet and warm and real -
Subtle in her palm.

She holds them out and they flutter, like doves. Cooing softly. They take flight and she lets them, flying deeper into a soft blue sky, flying where she cannot feel them, into a womb of warmth and darkness and -

Love.

Numbed, and so hard to touch.
