Harder

Written by Jacob Ibrag

You loosen your shirt, it’s getting

a little harder to breathe. The carbon dioxide

your lungs are so used to getting rid of are suddenly

collecting. It’s a cool seventy degrees with no wind and

yet your body is shaking. She’s takes your hand

and says yes. You don’t want to be here,

not with her, not yet.
