   1. entry based on cold skin by to kill a king

     the letter burns my hand, i don't want to touch it.

     i grab caleb's hand instead, his skin cold and

     foreign. this girl has taken him, every piece of

     him, stripped him bare, and stole his identity. 

     i used to think love was something beautiful,

     something that two people create together.

     but love is selfish, and scared

     angry, and raging

     brooding, and powerful

     and there is nothing you can do to stop it.

     caleb and i both were silly, like children,

     thinking it was gentle and patient.

     we were fools, and everyone knew we had

     no chance.
