Favorite Quote:
"Atque in pepetuum, frater, ave atque vale." -- "Forever and ever, my brother, hail and farewell."


Oh the horror—
So much blood.
He, the warrior,
Who fell in love
And took me to the place
Where our end will soon begin.
I kissed him, admiring the sweet taste,
All the while he is dreaming of a sin.

Our hearts soared like birds—
Then he stepped away
“To be human is to love” are his words.
“And we are human,” I quickly say
He strikes me down, I cower.
“But to love is to destroy.” He growls
I look to the sky and it glowers
He steps closer, in his eyes a frown

For once I truly believe
That if he really cares,
That I will cease to breathe
I succumb to his sweet glare,
Knowing that my death is just
Symbolic of his love
He leaves me breathless…
And I know he is mine.
My sweet Destruction.


The author's comments:
I saw a quote in a book and thought of an abusive relationship, which inspired me to write this poem. I hope people understand that this kind of mindset is not okay in an abusive relationship. If someone hurts you, then you shouldn't just let them. And if you see someone getting abused, don't let it happen.
