honeyblood by Nicole Mello

Change is both impossible and necessary.

The mind and the heart lash out against change as desperately as they crave it. Even pain seems easier in comparison to a sudden, drastic change. It is always simpler to continue along the way things have been, even if it means sacrificing anything— everything in the process.

After a certain amount of time, there comes a point where change seems unthinkable. To challenge the status quo would be a madness unlike anything else. Denying that urge, though— defying the desire to change— is what is truly inhuman. Not remaining the same.

With the snow falling in the city, this morning seems like any other. There’s no light to see by, the windows shuttered closed. Tiny splintered cracks in the wood allow the barest filters of starlight to leak through, when they exist, but there’s none to be seen now. This room is as it always is: empty, cold, dark. It is easier to know this darkness than to chase an unknown light, but it has become impossible to remain here without dying in those same shadows.

This morning truly could be like any other. The day could continue as every day here does, an endless misery, a prison of torment. It could be the same as it is always, each day before this one and likely each day after, the continuing pattern that will drag inexorably towards death, or worse.

Or: today could be the day things change.

Sparks ignite when we collide

(I get frantic, frantic over you)

I can't seem to get you off my mind

('Cause I know that I'm so good for you)

Come on darling now's the time

(Frantic, frantic over you)

And I'm ready for the magic now

The disappointment of finally opening the book you’ve been looking forward to… and knowing from page 1 it won’t meet expectations. Even sticking it out to the end, and it just wasn’t what you hoped.

[dragons-and-yellow-roses]

Delighted to announce that my story has officially reached novella length! I truly didn't think it would get this far, and didn't think I would be able to stick with it to get it this long. According to Wikipedia, a novella is 17,500-40,000 words, and I'm currently at 17,714. And I'm going to keep writing for awhile tonight. I'm just super proud of this
