"Believe nothing you hear and only one half that you see". Edgar Allen Poe 

Rhai Simmons lived by this quote. It gave her peace, it made her calm and it was said by her favorite poet. The words held a lot of weight in her life, it controlled her dreams when she was asleep and it kept her sane when she was awake because for her his words encompassed her struggles.
 
These words however will take on a whole new meaning when she meets Tavi. 
  
"Who's Edgar Allen Poe"? Tavi questions curiously while skimming through my poetry book." Only the greatest poet who ever lived" Rhai responds staring at the ceiling as if she was in a trance, "Some people said he was crazy, A maniac even but I disagree, he was just intoxicated with the euphoric feelings words brought. He wrote with such an intensity and spoke with such carefree abandon not caring what people thought but only expressing his thoughts no matter how dark it got and I respect that. He was honest and that translated to insanity for many because the truth scares people."

Tavi stared at Rhai, she has always been such a mystery to her not because she didn't know Rhai but because no matter how much you knew her there was always more to know, she pulled you in but it wasn't towards the light it was towards darkness, her darkness.

"Who's Rhai?" Rhai shifted her vision from the ceiling to look at Tavi, eyebrows scrunched. Tavi shifted her head to the side staring back at Rhai. Breaking eye contact Rhai switches her gaze back to the ceiling, "I don't know".  The atmosphere in the room shifted, it was a simple question but it held a lot of weight "I don't know who I am".

**WARNING** ~contains explicit content that may not be acceptable to all viewers. discretion advised~ "The question, 'why shouldn't I?' played on a loop in my head. I was fed up with biting my tongue and walking the so-called straight and narrow. It had gotten me nothing but misfortune. People walked all over me because I showed them that it was possible. They say to be kind. To love. To live your life purely. Not to expect anything in return. Why then, did it seem like all anyone wanted was to take from me? Take and take and take until there was nothing left, and even then, try to take more. I had been told, over and over, that if I lived by the principles I had been taught, it would all pay off. I don't know if I believe in it anymore. Any of it." *** Have you ever experienced moments of lost time? An eerie sense of Deja-vu? Most people have, it can be fairly common. For Fawn, however, that feeling seems to go a little deeper. She finds herself waking up in clothes she didn't put on. Noticing things in places she swore she didn't put them. Hours, sometimes even days, lost to her. She begins to wonder... is this normal? The answer to that question may be one she doesn't truly want to find. There's a game being played, one Fawn never knew she signed up for; And her opponent isn't one to play nice. Can Fawn win this game, fair and square? Or will she have to make a Foul Play? *** Ms.Witch *** Created (December) 2024 & Completed () 2025
