I want to be a nun and live in a cave in the mountains. To shield my heart in a silver encasing until the apocalypse bids my reincarnation to a different planet in this universe. I want to be a blind deaf morning star who only whistles for eternity. Death with a heartbeat. Life is sacred but to feel is hell.
