“Revelations”

It's 3AM.

The sky is preparing to weep.

I already have.

I pick through my collection in search of commonalities.

And there they are.

I cannot believe my eyes.

What are the odds?

The phone is ringing.

Is that confirmation?

I stopped looking for signs after they led me astray.

I let it ring.

Two missed calls.

One caller.

(178)801-0570

They didn't leave a message.

But I know who.

I knew as they whispered...

One.

Two.

While I choked on the ash from a flame that once burned Blue.
