black magic eyes, peeling through the core.
Chapter 1: Eternal life.
...it doesn't exist. you asked, "how long will we be together?" I referred you to three words.
we won't live.
it was never enough just to walk the straight way, naturally it's more adventurous to take the long way home. you were more than willing to stumble on your way but i hesitated and you turned the corner.
Chapter 2: Talking to the dead.
...if you concentrate hard enough, you hear them in you head. It was all just your imagination, kid. You hear what you want to hear.
they're dead.
six feet under or burnt to ash, it doesn't matter. once upon a time, they lived and laughed and now they are dead. there will be more to come. soon it would be you turn.
could have loved you all my life if you hadn't left me in the cold.

Yeah, this is horrible. Just DQ it. I'm gonna edit it, I'll let you know, Mike.

By the way. I adoooore the fact that you kept your reserve title.
It compliments this so well.

I think it's great! The wording is delectable and that last line is sad/nifty!
I really felt your prompt in your piece, and I have only been able to do that with one other work in this contest, really.
(I mean by that, I can feel 'grimoire' in this. The other one makes me think of a package and that was the contestant's prompt.) I am lovvving this contest more and more with the quality of everyone's writes and yours is top-notch, too, Mattia!

flawless.

YAY!
Your prompt is 4. grimoire.
Good luck with it!
