ELLA
Vanessa is laying in the hospital bed crying out in pain in her sleep.? The blisters on her face have begun to spread down her neck and onto her chest and arms.? The only place that is clear of lesions is where I ran my fingers along her skin outside of the gates.? I hadn’t meant to try and cure her in that moment, but my emotions took over like they did last night.? I can feel my power burning under my skin, like an itch that needs to be scratched.? In the moments where I feel pity for Vanessa, I can feel it surge forward and I have to call it back like and unruly child.
