A simple fix
is his wish.
The sweet,
soothing
melody coursing through his veins.
She denies him all
denies his existence, even…
Curses and flashes—
her screaming consumes him.
What the hell is she even doing here?
This is his domain,
not hers.
Tears of agony trail his cheek as
he reverts to a fetal position
on the ground.
He’s bleeding out his pupils.
Her leg draws back
to slam into his jaw.
Strength retreats his body and yet
he has risen.
A lull cycles through his mind:
        Ghosts of dreams
        circle through.
        She was gone
        before you knew.
Eyes crossed and
consciousness lost
as he last remembers.
She has fallen,
her head exploded on impact,
releasing an ebony mist of energy
that encircles him.
