Proof.

She sleeps with an unloaded gun pressed to her forehead. 

It’s the only thing that calms him enough to close his eyes. 

She doesn’t want to admit that it’s psychotic and dangerous. 

He loves the way the cold circle kisses him to sleep. 

She loves the way it fits into her hand and doesn’t let go. 

He’s afraid that he’ll want more and load a bullet. 

She’s afraid that she’ll want more and pull the trigger. 

I suppose the only way to prove you’re alive is to die.

Depth in your words. These last below three lines has made an impact indeed.

This is so good!

Are you all right?
I'm only asking because when I felt bad around half a year ago, I could write things very similar to this... I got help, but if you don't(If you feel bad) I'm afraid it isn't going to end well :-(

I love this only because of that last line. The exact reason I will question reality more than what I already have. It's waiting to strike, and our masks won't hold strong enough for its blow.

I don't mean this negatively, it was written well, but are you okay?

[Becky]

Haunting and very meaningful. The last line is especially good. Well written!
