This week's 100 Word Song challenge inspiration is OK Go's "This Too Shall Pass" chosen for Lance and Leeroy by Mel.
When
morning comes, she thought, she would wake and this crazy dream would be
over.
Lillie
slept between tears that wouldn't come and Trevor's warm body. He was always
there for her, even now when she was trapped between what made sense, and what
would never make sense, he was there.
"Lillie,
please wake up. I love you Lillie, do you hear me you stubborn ass woman? I
love you Lillie." Trevor said as heavy drops trickled down his face.
She
couldn't hear him, not now.
"Then
I will come to you." Trevor said as
he stared out the window.
so emotional
ReplyDeleteI like Trevor crying and growing into his emotions for her. Really good 100.
Thanks Lance, there must be growth, if they are ever going to get past these moments. I am glad you can feel the shift. :-)
DeleteI'm worried, since it seems to me like Lillie is either dead or in a coma here, what Trevor is planning to do to come to her!!
ReplyDeleteYou are insightful Jessie.
DeleteI haven't read any of the other posts for this story, but this is heavy with emotion. You've captured the pain so well!
ReplyDeleteThey are all posted if you want to. This one is a pivot point.
DeleteIt's sort of a darker gift of the magi, with her trying to get back to him and him threatening to come to her, and the communications lines all broken down around them...
ReplyDeleteYes, that's a very good way to put it Cameron. :-)
