If only she could have held it, forever Then she would have been...useful? what she was meant to be? fulfilled? fulfilling?
Personalities are a funny thing. Sometimes you don't like what you are meant to like sometimes you don't act the way you want to act you say no to all the right things and "oh God yes!" to so so many wrong things and you become less cute and drifty and lost.
Even on Christmas
Even with snow
Not what they expected, if they expected anything,
Other than cute.

I'm not sure if you meant for it to happen, but my mind took this somewhere dark. For some reason I picture a girl on the cusp of womanhood, still possessed of some of the soft features of childhood, still dressed in her night gown, standing in the snow in her front yard, watching her family's home burn, hearing the screams of those still trapped inside. What I love the most about 6ms is the fact that I can read another writer's work and become inspired. Thanks for sharing this, Mitch. Write on!
