A Place in the Sun

A monster wrote me a letter today

That said he was coming to take away

Our one true thing and surely may

Find my heart in pieces lay.

His vicious task would swallow whole

Yours and my collective soul

A vacant, bottomless, blackest hole

Heartless, he my sweetness stole.

His sick intent clearly to impale

My chest upon the bluntest nail

With all my being, resist and rail

Against the hurt and without fail.

An impossible choice was ours to make

To risk and fear the highest stake

My core to the coals he did rake

Relentless, firm, he came to take.

Not a sound came from your lips

Into the dark you quickly slipped

Nothing known could ever outstrip

Our love but hopeless, unequipped.

How could I sit and merely wait

For time to pass and make me late

To recognize your impending fate

And delay my action to later hate.

So I carried you into the sun

Wanting to walk, forced to run

To where we might find just one

Moment before your time was done.

You left me there, not far behind

Empty. Crushed. Shattered. Blind.

Our love the strangest kind of kind

The best for you that I could find.
