Honey Sugar

I was supposed to lay low after my first murder.
I was supposed to let the heat die down so I could return to a normal life.
Staying in Sugar Bayou with my family was the perfect way to do it.
Nothing went the way it was supposed to though.
I fell for the one girl I couldn’t have.
Our ties ran too deep.
They were too tangled.
She was forbidden and loving her the way I did was sick.
It was a sin.
But I didn’t need cures or prayers.
I needed her.
