clouded by home,
you troubled people
ask and destroy lives
to remake despair.
the power put in his hands
silenced her into that
familiar trap.
“i should have let her go.”
but he began attempting the
impossible, so used to looking
at the Gorgon, afraid to face
the sacrifice tightening
under his head.
“tomorrow?”
“dearest—!”
she flooded his heart with
goodbye.
