9: Courage
10: Enemies
Number: 5
They could cut and slice, drag you down to the deepest depths of pain and sadness. They could rip you in pieces and leave you quivering in the after math.
Or they could weave around you, telling a tale, giving you thoughts of life and love with just a few moments and the right tones.
They could do so much with so little so we continue to use them, to hurt.
To heal.
To kill.
To weave.
Prompt: courage
Number: 9
An inner strength that shines through as the worst moments surrounded us. It helped us do what we needed to do. It helped us to admit when we needed help.
Prompt: enemies
Number 10
You could never be friends with your enemy. Once upon a time he knew this, but couldn’t really care about the fact. He knew what he wanted, how he wanted it. He wanted it all.
He wanted him.
His enemy was his lover.
His lover was his enemy.
He knew that you could never be friends with your enemy. They never said you couldn’t be lovers with your enemy.
