WTFiction
Apparitions of an Orange

Hailey McCarthy-Goode, OP Contributor

 

 

I remember thinking of your face And sunk to the
Hidden behind those starshine climbers
Who were reaching for the most of the top Bottom with me

Eyes open for their last look,
I remember, as I joined the pack You were my final sight
Wanting only to reach for you
Instead my hand grasped I wished for fate
An orange, tormented To see you on the other side

- Squiggly black worms ripped

Into its brightest flesh The sun shone through fantastic water,

I dreamt of your Glimmered through,
supple skin Dousing us with phenomenal light

And yearned for your juice There was light in your eyes

Mine were closed

 

As the orange slipped through the cracks
—Into my blue veins, Releasing
Humming ensued
I wanted our song Myself from the chains,

I squeezed the orange

For you to break me Once more
Felt it
You filled my lungs Loop A Sty
With water Into Reality a
And let me drown I always wanted your fingers
Forever,
Below surfaces of stars Crawl over my back
I would only die with you Send shivers of ghosts
So Always Appatitions

 

You cast concrete to your feet
