❝he was beautiful
like the moon so blessed

rainier | a heart-shaped yellow cherry with a red blush

she had never worn white until him. a white pearl necklace, white bodice, white beads adorning it.
his shirt underneath was white, his bow the color of wine. his eyes held his charm, bestowing upon her like a tide.
a beach wedding was never a plan but so was falling in love. or wearing white, or running away from their families.
eloping. she thought she would be hurt but as her friend, ophelia tightened the laces, nearly suffocating her, she realized it was worth it.
despite being suffocated, she felt like she could finally breathe.
she could breathe through felix. he could breathe through her.
walking down the aisle, she saw him. he was what heaven looked like. his scent, his presence, his eyes, all left her intoxicated beyond redemption.

❝a faint twinkle in her eye
like splinters of glass
they pierce her slowly
as his they darkness encompass❞
