Member-only story
Only Each other
Prose from SHS.
“Only each other”
we’d say over and over,
him then me
then me then him
repeated,
echoing in an empty
dark bedroom nestled away
from anyone other than
Only each other.
Thanks for reading! If you like my style of prose, please make sure you follow the Bits & Bones publication, where I’ll be dropping short speculative non-fiction Mondays and Wednesdays!
This excerpt is one of many that I’ll be posting to Medium from the collection Strangling Heartstrings (a memoir in prose).
If you’d like to get your hands on a copy (featuring more stories exclusive to the ebook) you can get it on Amazon or download it from my Patreon (Skull+ tier, along with many other creative goodies).
