“When I met you I was but a fool, Dancing to my brothers tune as you succumbed to a demon’s honey words, Regretfully I shamed you, ignored you and blithely deemed you unworthy, And yet.

You saved me, prayed for me and father answered your calls, Answered the things you have been begging for your entire life, I have always heard your prayers, but never have I ever known they came from you.

Dearest one you said yes to the morningstar, Let in everything they will ever be and ever was consume you, Pure one that shines with heavens light, You overcame the devil, the adversary and damned yourself, Saving people that have only ever put you down, Saving me when I do not deserve it, You are the only one following father’s plan.

I was ordered to hate you, to disdain you the abomination, Yet I can’t and even when you hate me for what i’ve done, When you cannot stand the sight of the leviathans crawling through my vessel, Corrupting me, eating me, devouring my entire being whole, Maybe I will have repented for leaving your soul down there, For breaking the wall Death gave you.

Dearest one that owns my heart, As much as an angel can ever have a heart, I love you, you are so pure so good, It baffles me the way you are so certain of your damnation, It baffles me that you shy away and let your brother, Righteous man or not push you to obey his world views, That you deem yourself unworthy of loving.

Samuel, lovely one, I love you more than anything, More than my father or brothers, And if that means saying yes to the devil you once knew, Well.”

- I would do anything for you, because nothing is worth losing you. (nox)

“In my heart, a garden, And you the gardener.

Growing seeds and trimming weeds, A love that might have lasted.

But your smile, belladonna, Hides a wicked demon.”

- poison love (nox)

Take a breath, take a step.  Feel the wind, find your wings.

“I see you, You in all your mismatched beauty, The pieces that do not fit quite right, The ones that hang on by a mere thread.

You are beautiful, You think you are filth, But my love, no one, Truly no one is more incandescent than you.

You who are so strong, So brave and clever, A person that triumphed through all their troubles, You see yourself as a stain, But my love, you are not, You will never be.

You have been torn apart, Again and again, By everyone around you, Yet, still, you persevere, A deity of love and kindness amongst men.

I wonder, what you see in them, In the world and it’s inhabitants, That tear you limb from limb, And laugh as you pick up the pieces, So broken that they are.

You think it is what you deserve, But my love, you deserve so much more, More than what they can give you, More than what they can give a man held together by faith and love.

I wonder, why do you love them? I ponder this, as I pray, Pray to gods and beings I do not believe in, In hopes that maybe someday, They shall save you, Save you from the ones that would destroy you, Save you from oblivion.”

- Save you from yourself. (nox)

“Sometimes, Sometimes I think caring is a weakness, But then I see you.

You with your blood stained hands, And tear drenched soul, With a heart made of twine and safety pins.

You are so beautiful, Radiant with love for everything, Perhaps caring is a strength for some, For you, With all your mismatched pieces that never give in.

Love and compassion finds you, It turns you into a warrior, A storm.“

- you have never been more beautiful than now, my love (nox)
