topography

The desert ground is so dry it cracks like the skin of your lips does. It sends shaking arms, seeking out, to divide the dusty surface into jagged plates. When you lick your lips you taste red dust and a faint, salty sweetness - dried blood that welled up from the reservoir within you to encrust itself along the edges of your cracked lips

BRB, CRYING BECAUSE YOU WRITE SO PRETTY.

(Crying in a good and awestruck way, don't worry.)

Italics HTML fail up there, I know. DDDD:

damnnn, Kai.

When you lick your lips you taste red dust and a faint, salty sweetness - dried blood that welled up from the reservoir within you to encrust itself along the edges of your cracked lips in brown borders, mapping the geographic boundaries across your swollen mouth. That is just fucking awesome.
