A Garden of Glass Shards: The Fragile Fever

The city screams outside these walls, a jagged symphony of steel and neon that bleeds into my skin. But here, under this suffocatingly perfect blue sky, the air tastes like stolen nectar. I smooth the fabric over my hips—a dress so delicate it feels less like clothing and more like an invitation to surrender. Every bloom stitched onto its hem is a secret whispered against my ribs.

You stand in that shadow just beyond the gate, your presence a fever itch I can't scratch. This garden isn't for healing; it’s a gilded cage where we play-act at serenity while our pulses drum out an illegal rhythm. The sunlight catches the moisture on my lips, and I feel that familiar, dangerous pull—the urge to let you ruin me with your gaze alone.

We are two ghosts haunting each other's desires in this urban oasis. One touch from those fingers would shatter the glass peace we’ve built here, turning our quiet romance into a riot of blood and velvet. Let it burn. I don't want to be saved; I want to drown in your eyes until the only thing left is the scent of crushed petals and the taste of my own surrender.
