SALVATION
noun
the saving from danger or evil



















━━━━━━━━━━━━
salvation, the darkling
"There wasn't a night you didn't enter my dreams.
Tell me that you messed with my heart
or I won't stop myself from thinking about you
anymore."
(pre-shadow & bone)
━━━━━━━━━━━━






















Moments like these,
when he would raise her hand
and place it on his face,
made him shiver with pure ecstasy.
The constant need for him to know
that she was acknowledging him,
was making him anxious.
Yet when her cold fingertips touched his cheeks,
ran down to the tip of his nose,
his lips.
Maya milaya...
The darkness would submerge them both,
hiding the details of the room,
the light that he desperately hung onto.
Feeling at ease, feeling himself,
he'd lean into her touch,
pressing a kiss against her fingers
only to see her smile.
All of this war, all of this constant need for survival
came down to this moment -
her smile.

I want to tell you a story of a woman who lost her blossoms one by one. Once a beautiful flower, now left with mere green of the leaves, the little thrones that prick you when you come close.

The beauty was in her silence, buried under the expressionless face. Her beauty was her fingertips, buried deep into her palms, drawing blood, scarring once porcelain skin.

Flaws buried deep in her body, she breathed out pain, and she walked on needles. One step - pain. Another step - sorrow. The last one - agony.

There was a man who submerged into shadows, moving deeper into insanity, deeper into searching for the light. Once he was a lonely boy, now he was a ruthless ruler, wishing and craving to do more, to see more, to feel more.
