Fleeting Capes

If I were honest, I would have kissed you with the collar and tie on, but I guess that would have been a little awkward.

I'll never see your face again. That brutish hairdo and that dopy expression you wear when you're completely confused.

When your rough fingers grasped my chin and you pulled me in closer, it felt like a fantasy. I didn't want to pull away from your lips. I'm sorry I couldn't make it last longer. I know I should have but ... I'm not human. Oh you silly girl. Were those really the last words you said to him?

Thank you Lucas, for everything. I never wanted you to know the truth because I thought you could never love a creature. But it never mattered to you.

This is it. The last strides I make. What I wouldn't give to see your face on the other side of that door.

Don't feel sad Lucas. Promise me.
