OF HAVOC. OF CHAOS

Written By Gaël Muteba

I’ve met someone I find quite intriguing. This person seems to possess an understanding I’ve often found lacking in others. I’m trying to be rational and reasonable in tandem. Not always my strong suit.

I’ve learned how destructive my nature can be, so I keep my distance. Safely at bay. 

But this often makes it difficult when this one chooses to close the distance. I find that I want nothing more than to close that distance. I find this person makes my mind excited. Nothing fleeting, nothing childish. No heart skipping, no fluttering. Just a powerful curiosity.

One I haven’t felt in a long time. This person speaks of havoc. Of chaos. And it speaks to the chaos I wish to create. To the havoc I wish to lose myself in. But this I cannot voice, for I never again wish to pull someone else into my chaos. 

Curiosity or no.
