The Beautiful Thing

#Prompt 32

We are a lost city of bones

Sacral, Lumbar, Cervical

A nation of the undiscovered

growing in the wrong directions

The picture of a winding road that

leads nowhere

Stealing adolescent smiles along the way

a ravager of childhoods

The dreamcatcher got loose and here we are

pushing through a beautiful thing

girl

boy

girl

girl

We are a lost city

A prison of pain

The last place to ever grow again.

If you’re up for a good story.
