[WP] Story of a girl and a bottle of Jack | She grabs the neck through the paper bag and tips it so the edge of it drags along the counter and falls off the end to dangle from her listless arm.

Well little Norma Jean was feeling pretty mean
And she meant to make her way far away from the scene
She’d always craved some more but she was feeling sore
From soaring every night in those tight blue jeans
She gave a little groan as she shut off her phone

[WP] Story of a girl and a bottle of Jack | She lied down on the picnic table, looking up at the stars searching for answers. She tried to remember the last time that she was truly happy, but failed. Ha, she laughed dryly, no surprise there. She'd been failing at a lot of things lately.

[WP] Story of a girl and a bottle of Jack | She sat in her chair in front of the fire place. She looked to her right, his chair was empty. She covered her legs with their blanket. A tear began to form at the corner of her eye. She looked up at the mantle and stared at the urn that was sitting in the middle.
"Happy 53rd anniversary Jack."

[WP]: A world where men are required by law to be emotional, and women are required by law to be emotionless. | "Why aren't you crying." she whispered, her lips tight and her face stoney.
"I can't." he replied.

all is quiet but the tick tock race,

[CW][Serious] Use hyperbole or analogies to describe your struggle with temptation. Did you give in?
