Porphyria's Lover

[the_mogget]

As a farewell to poetry month, which has already ended, see, because I am fail, I shall post my favorite poem. It's a bit longish, but completely worth it.

Because I'm a sick bastard:

Porphyria's Lover; Robert Browning

Oh god, that poem. So much <3

Do I recall us reading that in an English class in high school, or is that just my imagination/poor memory?

The first time I read that was last year. You might have read it in one of those fancy AP classes I wasn't in. That one.

I'm almost sure we read it in high school at one point. I remember varying degrees of "wtf" from the class.
