###@%==»~, i used to be a goth, in my youth, doing ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, crimes mostly from or in my beloved and ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, trusted car, and sometimes my mothers ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, barn. we lived just outside town, a ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, grove at the end of a dirt road, and ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, the barn was placed so you could just ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, make out the surrounding fields through ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, the trees. ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, my car was black and loud, both the ,,~»==%@##
###@%==»~, engine and the way the parts didn't ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, really stick together. i took my ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, crimefriend for rides, in the dark, the ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, eternal dark that seemed to surround ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, us. she seemed to cast this veil over ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, everything. her black skirt reached to ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, her knees but then somehow also back ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, around, enveloping all my memories of ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, our time together. ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, ,,~»==%@##
###@%==»~, there was blood everywhere. sometimes ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, the blood was her red lipstick or her ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, checkered shirt. she was on television. ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, we did crime, and we made weird ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, structures in the barn, tall pillars of ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, dark wood, ladders and plateaus, fires ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, and fairy lights. we would sleep there ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, and drink there and she would go in the ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, television. ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, ,,~»==%@##
###@%==»~, and then the sun came out, and she went ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, away. everything changed... i yearned, ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, and the world became dull around me. ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, i stopped doing crime, except when ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, necessarry. things somehow seemed like ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, they were allright, moulded in place, ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, and i loathed it ------ i missed her ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, so much. ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, ,,~»==%@##
###@%==»~, ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, »»»»»~~, ,~~»»»»» ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, i searched for her, but nobody had any ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, memories of her. not so much of me ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, either, from the time we were together. ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, my mother said i kept to myself in the ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, barn, or in the car. ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, ,,~»==%@##
###@%==»~, sometimes i could still see her ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, flashing by on the tv in the barn. ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, everything was black then, for a ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, moment. i remembered her laugh and knew ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, we had done crimes together, that it ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, had been real... ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, »»»»»~~, ,~~»»»»» ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, ,,~»==%@##
###@%==»~, ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, i died by getting shot in the head ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, while ramming the fence to a military ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, facility. by this time they had been ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, chasing me for days. i lost control ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, over the car, crashed it into a rock ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, wall and flew out the windshield. ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, and then i got up, and looked around. ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, it was dark, where it previously had ,,~»==%@##
###@%==»~, been a bright day. around me where ,~»==%@###
##@%==»~,, dozens of crashed cars, all my car, ,,~»==%@##
#@%==»~,,, some on fire. ,,,~»==%@#
@%==»~,,,, ,,,,~»==%@
%==»~,,,,, the ground was sticky, red. ,,,,,~»==%
==»~,,,,,, ,,,,,,~»==
%==»~,,,,, and then i realized that i knew this ,,,,,~»==%
@%==»~,,,, darkness. i knew the way the sky ,,,,~»==%@
#@%==»~,,, touched the ground. this was her doing! ,,,~»==%@#
##@%==»~,, she was here! ,,~»==%@##
