If you're absent during my struggle. Don't expect to be present during my success.


Their
star-crossed hearts
banned
from sight
of love sick eyes,
only to
produce
a shared grave,
the sole treasure
their
forbidden lust
could buy.

To love is to be vulnerable; Triumph is born out of struggle; We notice shadows most when they stand alone in the midst of overwhelming light.

Woah! This poem really hit me hard. I love the line about them sharing a grave, really heartrending line. Good work!
