Be not afraid to **** your darlings, For they will fall as humans do, And bleed their words upon the page -- A bandage wrapped around a wound Be not afraid to **** your darlings, For they will litter every shelf, Their headstones will compose the cover, Of books which you have built yourself. Be not afraid to **** your darlings, They will not grudge nor hold in strife, For bestowing death upon your darlings Has instead bestowed upon them life.

**** Your Darlings.
Be not afraid to **** your darlings, For they will fall as humans do, And bleed their words upon the page -- A bandage wrapped around a wound Be not afraid to **** your darlings, For they will litter every shelf, Their headstones will compose the cover, Of books which you have built yourself. Be not afraid to **** your darlings, They will not grudge nor hold in strife, For bestowing death upon your darlings Has instead bestowed upon them life.
This poem was inspired by the film **** Your Darlings". It is a must watch for any aspiring writers :).
