Wild Dark Shore

by Charlotte McConaghy

Is this how you feel after being swept in on a current? Will you change shape and put down roots? Or carry on in search of somewhere better?

“Maybe we will drown or burn or starve one day, but until then we get to choose if we’ll add to that destruction or if we will care for each other.”

something so deeply wrong I am stunned that I ever believed it: that in the face of world’s end love should shrink.
