Today's writing

Love as choice or chance? As default or defeat? You would think the answers would come more easily over time. You would be wrong. For Ruth, the questions grew larger, developed spikes that brushed the edges of who she was, scratching her skin, turning love from comfort into something colder, more cutting. Icicles in the interior, a forest on the verge of burning down. Nature red in tooth and claw. Blood, ready to spill.
