sapphique lived.
those within were raised for their work, their bravery. those who fled now felt dead among them — but no. not like the dead, for the dead would be honored. remembered among the cliffside residents.
how hard to know that one lover laid in the earth.
one lover roamed somewhere beyond.
a son of those two had joined in the earth too.
it did not feel real. not even as she looked upon the two roja. as she saw bits and pieces of each in them. as they spoke of all the changes. of the ways men not of the sea would never hurt them again. never pass down disappointment like an heirloom among them.
when her voice joined in, it was low and somber. a note of loss and a begging for rosalyn to come back to them too.
