Summary
The first time I see her, it’s fire.
Not the punishing kind I’ve come to fear— the kind that comes entwined with the sun’s rays or the touch of a crucifix— but the kind that shines its light upon you and breathes life back into the deepest parts of me that I long since believed were dead. Dormant lungs suddenly feel filled to the brim with the sweet, lead-like heaviness of air they’ve so long been denied and when I close my eyes and listen very closely, I can almost hear my phantom heartbeat slamming in my apt ears. My tongue quickly darts from my mouth and swipes over my lips to wet them in anticipation— though of what, I’m uncertain.
