and the apartment: just delightful. very tiny and very cool with an amazing twisty wood staircase that creeps an winds and hides all of the secrets.

secrets.

such a sick
and torturous
and twisted word.

just like the crude staircase.
but beautiful, like a whisper.

slipping in and slipping out.

so the knotted ball of heartstrings and ribbons and whispers and
touches came unravelling.

bump
bump
bump


down the shiny and uneven staircase.

tangle twist turn curve
secret dark sweep hide
lips sweet stolen lost hurt
ache rage clench squeeze choke
stifle broken pieces ashes
smouldering raw
truth
uncover
betrayal
