《Aeternum: A Collection of Poems》Monsters
Advertisement
A wise man once said,
Love makes us monsters
Since it's something that
Would make you go bonkers
And the truth is when we love someone
As a famous saying goes
We either die a hero,
Or live long enough
To see ourselves become the villain
So I guess the question that really matters
At this point in time
That we should ask ourselves
What would you do for the sake of love?
For when I saw thee, falling from the heavens above
I knew right away that you were worth the risk
So please forgive me, my dear
For whatever I may do; please know that
I only did those things for the sake of you
So knowing this, if I may ask you this:
Can you still love me, a beast in the eyes of many?
Hi my dear Kenneth-ers, I hope you're liking my literary pieces so far. Anyways, this poem is actually inspired by Sir Thomas Sharpe from the film Crimson Peak, as well as the classic tale of Beauty and the Beast. 🧐
