Forever

A Poem by Einna

A poem about forbidden love.

He is powerful.
He is dangerous.
He is psychotic.
He is Satan.
But he is also my lover.
The one I always find my way back to as my little black heart belongs to him,
it always has for the longest time.
When we're together, I forget about everything and everyone for an extended period of time.
I have thought about running away with him and abandoning our current lives,
just so him and I can be together undisturbed by the public and truly live happy lives.
But instead of living in our paradise, we're stuck here.
For, we both have responsibilities and duties to adhere to.
We have sacrificed ourselves to them.
Our body.
Our soul.
Our mind.
Old tortured souls trapped in this body made up of flesh and bones,
which will eventually decompose with the land that we stand on.
So, we just ride.
We ride long, hard and fast into the dark night,
both wishing that this moment will last forever,
but nothing in this filthy world lasts forever.
All we can do is hold each other tight and savor this magical moment that we both will remember forever and ever.
