Like Eliot's April
*
He doesn't like December. He cried when he came into this world and he's been crying on and off ever since. Too many dark nights and cold winds, swift highs and plunging shadow-deep lows. He takes solace in the pen, and its twin, his keyboard, and they lift him from depression; slow the hell-bound descent.
She loves the month. Chooses the gift with utmost care, taking the time to appreciate his worth. Sees him everywhere; the berry-red lips, the prickles; warm firelight reflected in his eyes. To appear cold on the outside and so warm within.
Like she loves him.
