KindnessA Story by Benjamin DavidSeemingly startled by her persuasive admission, I followed suit through the insidious passage of a long tangential road leading to the edifice's draperies and their tantalising tapestries. Pensive and staring attentively at the the unsightly closure of this perennial door adjourned, I find a cloaked gentleman shaped in hutch and curious wonder pointing afar. I ventured towards his vicinity, paying particular attention to every remaining ounce of moral entrail that wept in melody to my heart's seething sombre. "Have fear of what lay behind the entrance, never close your eyes and find satiety in her reticence" he exclaimed. As the disfigured and recoiled man collapsed through the tragedy of his benighted heart, I glanced towards the windowpane from which she appealed graciously to the dainty channels of my love's rapacious torment. The befallen man, kindled in the obsolete and hereto neglect, pulled upon my heart's contrails and the chivalry which most men abandon at adolescence through the vices of imminent adulthood . The dichotomous choice that now troubled the heart and this morale of eternity - the remaining innocence and intangible purity was, indeed, an easy one.
