Curiosity

I’ve always been too curious to be afraid. Any damage from my travels grew into scars and stories for ready ears. Approaching the bunker, my feet froze with the ice beneath them. My breath lagged behind my steps forward. In the darkness I lost my contemporary armor. Flashes brought rooms, chairs of voyeurs, and bars for those who never left.

What I lost I hope never to find again.
