peace out, girl scout

Currently listening to: The Subway – Chappell Roan

Made you the villain
Evil for just moving on
I see your shadow
I see it even with the lights off
I made a promise, if in four months this feeling ain’t gone
Well, fuck this city, I’m movin’ to Saskatchewan

When do you feel the most peaceful?

Prompt snagged from: TCMC

When I’m asleep.
On a plane lulled by Dramamine,
after a day that wrung me dry,
belly full from too much of something good,
or in the quiet after sex that left me breathless, that’s when it happens.

My body surrenders first, then my mind follows.
No racing thoughts. No memories replaying.
Just a hush. Like someone dimmed the lights in my head
and all that’s left is warmth.
Stillness.
Bliss.

There’s nothing behind these eyes.

    I’ve heard that sleep after sex is so deep. Well, honestly, I giggled by your honesty, Rojie. I love it.

    I don’t know when I feel peaceful. You sure do have it down pat! After sex … LOL … even the passionate, breathless kind … I’m all wound up, full of energy, and looking to go out somewhere.
