The Horizon Bleeds Gold Over My Skin

Salt stings my skin—a sharp, electric needle of reality against the haze. I sprint through waves that crash like thunderclaps in a silent room. The sun is dying! It collapses into a molten core on the horizon, bleeding orange fire across the water's surface.
I reach for you in this blur of motion and heat. My heart hammers—a piston-driven engine demanding fuel. Every breath is heavy with brine and your name whispered by the wind that whips my hair into a frenzy. This dock isn’t just wood; it’s an altar where we sacrifice our city secrets to the tide.
You look at me, and time fractures! The urban noise—the sirens, the neon grind, the suffocating steel—evaporates instantly. Here, in this golden pocket of eternity, my wounds close under your gaze. I am no longer a ghost in the machine; I am flesh and fire. One touch on the dock is enough to ignite it all again.
