The Wounds That Make Us
By dominique mcphearson in General Literary | Reads: 352 | Likes: 1
Rummaging through a dead man's things is, perhaps, the strangest thing I've ever done. I sit on the floor in his room. A setting, orange sun filtering through the window illuminates my surroundings.

Slowly opening my eyes, I moved my fingers and stretched my feet. It felt weirdly satisfying. I looked around the room and found my sisters on the far left corner of the room. I smiled at their faces, adorned with masks and their bodies wrapped in heavy safety gear. My eyes filled with tears as I lo  Read More...
