The rich tones of his voice echoed in the dome of my head. The image of a rose floated in the flush behind my eyelids. It was soft-chalk pink, closed in a tight bulb, like a heart. With every slow throb of my own heart, it opened a little more, steadily. The velvet petals were spreading, like soft little tongues wet with dew. I felt my muscles yielding and softening as I relaxed, my blood blooming warm under my skin. The rose curled apart, and I unfurled myself with it, and his voice grew and swelled in my mind.\u003cbr\u003eI lay paralyzed.
