Story Notes:
Hello, I listened to really sad music for three hours and this happened. It sat on my desktop for ages because I kept trying to figure out a way to continue it, got fed up and forgot about it. I came across it again when sorting files and realized that I prefer where it ends so I’m putting it up as a one shot here. This style of writing is much more poetic than I normally attempt but I’m happy with it. TRIGGER WARNING: there is self-harm and abuse of a child discussed in here.
