Other

I saw his crystal eyes under the moon.

Gleaming within the rays of blue.

Purple screaming at my tone of voice.

Screaming for some sort of connection.

There was no sound to reach me,

Those paws reached out to nothing.

Those jaws could only seek out emotion.

There was no connection to scream to.

My crystal eyes bore back to him.

Yearning for some sort of company.

His jaws clamped over my throat.

And I welcomed the feeling.

Author's Note

My demon loves me.

This poem's about a character of mine. Shoe, in her own world she has a spirit inside of her. His name is sonnie and he's a nice companion.... most of the time.

Was wondering how to read this poem until I read your author's note. May not know anything about Shoe herself, but I can get a bit of a taste here. Sonnie & Shoe is a real nice duo of names though, it has to be said. From Shoe's point of view, it sounds like Sonnie is a lonely demon. Lonely, and sad, trying to find any connection with anyone so he latches onto her. They're both looking for a sort of connection. The last two lines were my favorite, as that intrigue and odd sense of disturbance together works so nicely. Might have to check out the story as well.

I can see here a person with double personalities. Her demon is her other personality. Very intriguing/interesting. Great job!

Sort of ^^

We all need some sort of connection. So does this demon who you have created.
Its good to be friends with such a demon but hope he doesn't get too close for comfort.

oh my goodness ...this has basis in women's pathology of abuse with colorful visuals and needs expressed ..oh the hunger for "connection" ..makes one vulnerable .. i hope your character has some backup when those clamped jaws get too serious to enjoy ;) this is a fine teaser to read your story!

Whoa. Ok, I had no idea that this was a part of Shoe's character... but it is very intriguing. I mean, she was already really cool already, and now this. I can't wait to see how this develops in the story! :) The idea of searching for some kind of connection, even a painful one, is very interesting. The final two lines are simultaneously fascinating and disturbing (funny how often those two overlap, huh?). Very cool. Nice work!

In the yona fanfic sonnie doesn't exist. Since I use her in multiple stories. But perhaps I'll wrote a fantasy series with her in it ^^

Ah, I see. Yes, that would be very cool!
