The Poetry & Prose of Annabelle Ravenshade

Post by JustMonika » Wed Dec 21, 2022 2:43 pm

[I imagine the following to be scattered across the desk of her home in Guldorand, stained with inkblots and frustration.]

I forget.

Pain.

My hand shakes.
A thousand thoughts, yet none.
Instinct like an animal, I lose myself.
I am glad.
Let her go.
I yield her to you, cast of my woe like a snake.
I am yours, I am nothing.
I lash out, and your return stains my cheek with crimson.
I don't care. I don't think.
You are robbed of your victory, for in this moment, all my misfortunes are gone.
We are broken, yet in this moment, whole.
I cry out, yet no tears come.
Only you.

Temporarily back to Arelith and currently Lilliana Snowfire.

If you have unfinished business with Ultrianan, let me know! Arabella has been rolled.

Memory

Life is a stream.
I hurtle down it, crashing upon the rocks.
Behind, a twisted trail of blood.
It flows towards the waterfall.
In the end we all fall.
For a time, our broken passage is marked in the water.
Twisted lines of crimson, ripples in the surface.
For those who care to look, our passage lingers.
But only for a time.

More ghosts than people.

I saw it in your eyes, when you wondered if we might already be dead.
Or was what I saw just a reflection of my own eyes?
Was Annabelle alive, and Jess is but her ghost?
They took everything from her.
They have even taken you.
So let them drown. Let them burn.
If we are more ghosts than people, why not make ghosts of them all?
I shall feel alive again, when everyone else is dead.
Perhaps then, I'll be able to feel again.
