A faint fog falls
Over my tired eyes
It's the same that covered them before
Yet still a part of me dies
Our gaze connects,
For only just a moment
My heart skips a beat
I'm locked eyes with a poet
An uninvited smile splays on my lips
A second of joy
Then ruined by reality
For, I am just a boy
She is a girl
Small and kind
I cry that I can't have her
Because my soul to you is signed
Revenge is bittersweet
A cozy sword in my heart
I'm over that disaster
Yet we're not apart
A creature in the corner
Encroaching in my space
I've held many creatures
Void of life
But it's never as hard
As when it's your own
No pulse, no
Breathing
Just an empty
Shell that once was
"Oh little girl,"
They say with distain
Usually followed by a suggestion on how to change myself
But I don't want to change
"Oh little girl,"
With tears in their eyes
