The mountain's shadow was my shawl keeping me safe from them. I heard their voices, their horses hoofbeats. Yet when it seemed they would find me, the sun came out and blinded them.
The mountain's shadow moved back to hide and comfort me. I was hopeful of the King's reprieve.I was anxious for a life that could exclude love.
Days past. Snows shattered comfort. Still the shadow of the mountain persisted.
When they found me I was already bones. My flesh had been digested into the mountain's shadow. How strange to live a life without a life to live.
