hhh finished reading hamlet today and i feel empty inside :')
my sweet prince, how i miss you so. I can't stop thinking about the last time i ever spoke to you. you stopped me from joining you in death, and all i could do was hold you as you grew cold in my arms. i cried tears that could rival a stream, wailed louder than any godforsaken thunderstorm in Denmark. you wanted me to live, and so i did. i lived for a long time without you. somedays i would sit and think about you, i never did forget you after all. i had friends yet i felt so alone without your lively glow to brighten the room, without your heart to warm mine. i never married. i couldn't. not when the only hand i wanted to ever entwine within silver and gold were six feet under this cold and vast world. oh my sweet darling prince, how cruel of you to take a piece of my heart and run off with it, never to return.
but oh how i love you. <3 - Horatio : Shakespeare's 'Hamlet'
