Poem: scarification

Jan 21, 2012 20:40


For I too have suffered loss;

have known that nothing

will get better,                  that

a scar will always be                        a scar

and sometimes will be a wound; that

everybody leaves, and

nobody loves entirely

and

that there is a line I

cannot face again -

that

to love is the bravest thing of all

if it means waiting to be hurt

poetry, my poetry, writing

I'm really pleased you like it - it's my new favourite, I think :)

Did you get my email with my suggested changes to your fic?

I did -- THANK YOU, so much! I haven't yet had a chance to implement them.

I hope they make sense - if not, let me know and I'll be happy to explain why I've done whatever :)

Oh, yes.

Man, this makes me wish that some of my poems for LOC were more emotional right now.

I'm glad you like it, since you're such a great poet yourself :) Why not write some more emotional poems separately anyway? There's always room for more poetry.

*blushes* Half the time I don't know where my poems come from, but I've been so distracted by work/school to do much outside of Neko's stuff.

Though I did write one a few weeks ago, but I didn't put up on AO3. I think there's a link at my journal to my friend's post (it was a writing chat deal.)
