Koa
Don't you just wanna wake up dark as a lake
Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?
One day soon they'll doubtless look back and miss the days when vague love quadrangles were their biggest concern, when is she pregnant? was a more pertinent question than is she alive? When the first question might have had a less definitive answer than the second.Smelling like a bonfire, lost in a haze?
Because if he's being totally honest, Koa doesn't know.
Flora's terror is a clear reflection of Koa's thoughts these past few months, the dark potentials he's spent seasons contemplating screamed across her face. It makes it that much harder to meet her eyes, because he knows what she must be going through, understands acutely the pain of not knowing and has no way to soothe it.
"I don't know," is the hoarse response, a death rattle confessed from breathless lungs as Koa struggles to keep himself in check. "I didn't... It all happened so fast. But if I were to guess..."
His gaze on the horizon - on the new, corrupted island that stains the sea - says it all.
If you're drunk on life, babe, I think it's great
But while in this world I think I'll take my whiskey neat
But while in this world I think I'll take my whiskey neat
