she raged recklessly through the ranks

ONCE UPON A TIME in the middle of winter, a woman sat by the snow. "Oh," said the woman. She sighed heavily, looked at the blood before her, and was most unhappy. "If only I had a child as red as blood and as white as snow." And as she said that, she became quite contented, and felt sure that it was going to happen. ...then she had a child as white as snow and as red as blood, and when her husband saw it, he was so happy that he died.

she noticed neither breeze nor sound

NOW the poor child was all alone in the great forest, and so terrified that she looked at all the leaves on the trees, and did not know what to do. Then she began to run, and ran over sharp stones & through thorns, and the wild beasts ran past her, but did her no harm. she ran as long as her feet would go until it was almost evening, then she saw a little cottage and went into it to rest herself.

With these words she let go the reins.

AND NOW THE KING'S DAUGHTER searched endlessly for the maiden, whose stepfather chased away from her mother. she lay lifeless, all red drained from her pale pale face. only true love's kiss would awaken her.

ROSE  WATCHED  ON  as  her  peers  (  a  word  that  she  could  only  use  loosely  )  began  piling  on  top  of  each  other  ;  sardines  in  a  tin  can.   she  is  suddenly  compelled  to  sneak  whatever  alcoholic  drink  was  near  her.  she  was  too  young  to  be  drinking,  but  death  comes  soon  for  youth  in  this  world.  why  shouldn’t  she  be  one  of  the  many  who  die  ?  as  she  heard  the  crowd  get  louder,  she  knew  with  familiarity  that  he  was  here.  the  one  who  managed  to  survive. survival,  what  a  funny  way  to  describe  dying  at  a  slower  pace.  those  wounds  didn’t  seem  to  heal,  bleeding  out  slowly.  so    very     slowly.  she  decided  to  go  and  meet  him.  might  as  well  partake  in  the  festivities.  as  she  pushed  through  the  crowd,  her  heart  raced.  what  was  this  feeling  ?  unsure,  she  stuck  her  hand  out  as  an  act  of  kindness  (  laced  with  pity  &  guilt  )    ❛  hi.  i’m  rose red.  ❜

she  didn’t  want  this.  she  wanted  death.  it  wasn’t  fair,  it  wasn’t  fair,  it  just  wasn’t… fair.  a  permanent  glaze  was  found  over  her  eyes.  a  nod.  a  shake  of  the  head.  her  arms  grew  lifeless  as  she  let  them  dress  her,  handle  her.  this  was  far  more  painful  than  death.  her  kind  deserved  it.  to  feel  the  disdain,  the  guilt.   but  haven’t  they  always  been  the  cause  of  bloodshed  ?  are  they  incapable  of  shame  ?  it  has  been  8  times  standing  up,  smiling  in  the  face  of  tears.  mothers,  fathers,  friends.  as  these  thoughts  streamed  through  her  mind,  she  took  the  only  course  of  action  she  knew.  she  ran.  they  didn’t  notice  as  she  snuck  out,  habitually.  she  was  never  courageous  enough  to  stay.  however,  unlike  the  other  times,  she  didn’t  reach  a  new  destination.  no  new  sanctuary.  instead,  she  is  barricaded  by  one  of  them.  she  could  have  killed  someone  he  knew.    ❛  i’m  so  sorry.  shit.  sorry.  ❜
