Summary

❝ in this poker game of life and death, i shall be the ultimate sacrifice to keep my beloved alive; a fallen hero fed to the hungry wolves to be the exemplar that the good tell no tales of gaiety. ❞ and, thus, i say unto you, fragrant wildflower, that poetry never ends, seeing as you are flesh and bones; the flawless embodiment of molten gold. the sweet hellfire of a tasteless delight surrounds your fingertips as molten silver slips from your lips like saccharine in the land of milk and honey. infinite stars torch the midnight sky, champagne drips from the feast held by the gods of our haunted fortune as glory swirls in your globes; the portal of heaven locked within those cavernous eyes. and, lastly, i say unto you, my sweet lullaby, that though this journey may end as all flowers wither and all that's left is the stem, know that when darkness falls upon us all, a wreath of forgotten glory shall arise. —and in that smoke, a fallen hero shall awake from this grave, and, until then, my dearest reader, you shall be the exemplar of pure goodness and i shall be the ultimate sacrifice to keep my beloved alive.

Chapter 1

HOLLOW THIEVES

toxic lips & silver arrows.

to the ones who abide with a storm anchored in their heart, gold escaping their tongue and the sweet cherry lips that conquered my soul.

to those who encouraged the hurricane in my soul and to those who were like carbon dioxide to my lungs.

to the souls lost in the wilderness of youth and foreign glory, with gold frozen on their mind.

(( previously known as cherry wine ))



hollow thieves, for me, represents the thieves of hearts, that lie in the pool of sin, baptized by sadness, the ability to feel.



hollow thieves means that we, ultimately, are the assassin of our own hearts and withering youth, the loss of salvation, the lost love in the city of mass destruction, the love we had for ourselves that perished.
but, as the interpreter of my craft, you are free to stitch any meaning you desire on this cloth. it is the cloth of our withering youth, wicked destiny and all the forlorn mysteries, so, you, my dear, can add any wildflower you wish.

with warm hands & a cold heart, i welcome you to the cherry wine, darlings.
