The Sweetest Eve

Lightning struck a sugary apple tree on a snowy mountain. The hungry flames raged as they sought to be fulfilled, trees went ablaze. The snow kept returning, kept falling, in the ebb and flow of the rising flames and the falling snow your image appeared. You are the mistress of the elements. You are the […]

When all ends, our hands will be clenched together. When all ends our hands will be clenched together.
