the door.

The door only opens at night. When the sky is darker than the shadows that lurk in and out of the winding corridors only broken by the ghostly gleam of the full moon, and the misty rain that pitters and patters against the windows. I hear its rusty lock click…

exhausted.

Exhausted. Why do I feel so exhausted… we were an embodiment of ecstatic euphoria that rush of adrenaline as you take your first hit that night blur of intoxication we were something… oh were we something… there I am standing untouched hands curled in my sleeves, my jacket zipped all…

A light breeze carries the soft hum of the joyous accordions and violins sounding down the cobblestone through the lively yet secret labyrinthine alleys of Paris.
