she
breathes like she loves
every person on this earth

she
loves like she could die
if she didn't

as the wolves come for her
she hides underwater

her light so bright
she could turn anything to fire

must've been a curse
or a blessing
or something in between

to love so much
too hard
too fast

when you're not supposed to be
loved back
or even seen

and they say
at night,

you can hear the echoes
of her screams

when she pleads to the gods
to stop punishing her

for her sins
she doesn't even remember
