Worth the Risk
August & Colin | WRU series | book 1 We take risks. We make mistakes. We lie. We love. We hurt. We lose total control. I took a risk. I paid the price. I made a mistake. I felt the guilt. I lied. I lie. I loved. I try not to. I hurt. I still do. I lost control. I'm losing again. I try to stick to my plan, I try to follow my rules, I try to silence my heart, I try to keep control of the domino stones that represent my life. But one domino fell and the rest just followed. *** "We shouldn't do this," he whispers against my lips. I should applaud him for having the strength to act on that thought because I haven't been able to. At one point I wanted to, but his touches made the impulse to stop vanish. Now, the only thing I want to act on is the longing inside my chest as I think about demolishing the space between us. "Do you want to stop?" I can feel his frown against my forehead. He nudges my nose before placing a featherlight kiss on my mouth. His hands slide over my jawline, his thumbs slowly caressing my cheeks. He gives me another kiss. Slow and deliberately, as if he's still debating the answer to my question as he slicks his tongue over mine. He softly sucks on my bottom lip, dragging it with him when he pulls away. "I can't," he confesses before he presses his lips back on mine. *** All Rights Reserved (Do not copy this story, thank you :))Complete

He ruled spaces without occupying them, directed outcomes without leaving traces. Authority obeyed him before understanding him. ............ She was the opposite. Uncontained, defiant, fiercely alive. Rebellious by instinct and savage in her independence. She refused to be subdued by expectations or softened by fear. She did not follow currents but she disrupted them. ............. Neither sought explanation. Neither offered clarity. They existed as forces, not stories, noticed only when order trembled and silence grew alert. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙗𝙚𝙩𝙬𝙚𝙚𝙣 𝙇𝙤𝙫𝙚 & 𝙃𝙖𝙩𝙚, 𝘼𝙘𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 & 𝙀𝙢𝙤𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣, 𝘽𝙚𝙩𝙧𝙮𝙖𝙡 & 𝙇𝙤𝙮𝙖𝙡𝙩𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙨𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙬𝙞𝙣 𝙗𝙪𝙩

Yours Truly, Mooncalf
This is a personal documentation through poetry. I am learning to look inward now, give myself love when I least want to. I do not live to love others, I live to love myself. I will find and create what is enough for me, and you will learn to let it be enough for you. 2022Complete
