{A/N: This is something i wrote for my BNHA OC Danniel. i pretended that there was an assignment where the class needed to right a poem about something they wanted to scream out to the world. after Dabi got arrested for Bakugou's kidnapping (my AU as this is in my shifting DR) he decided to read the poem out to the world, not caring for the risks. Hope you like it!!}
CONTEXT: Childhood friends both from abusive households --> one turned Hero one turned Villain but they still love each other in secret.
Is it so wrong to love like me?
Is it so wrong to love like me? Everyone says falling for your best friend is hard, you don't want to ruin your relationship with them but in all those books and movies and TV shows, it always works out.
Not for me.
Falling for my best friend requires me getting accusations thrown my way, having to hide from everyone but each other. I've heard people like the Dynamic im in, its cute, adorable and clique. Not from my point of view. I'm stuck in an endless cycle of secrets and suspicion, I hate lying to everyone but I have to, he's something i just can't lose.
People say it's Wrong to love like me, then why does it feel so right? The blood rushing to my face, the way he makes me laugh, the softness in his ice cold eyes as he looks at me, his warm rough hands grasping my own, his voice like a lullaby, his laugh a melody I'd listen to on repeat. It's wrong to listen to his heart, listening to it beat in sync with my own. Its wrong to crave his arms around me, to want to be in his presence every moment i live, to want a life with him, the life i cannot have.
Why is it wrong to love like me? Is it because of how we were raised? How we grew into our trauma? Because of the paths we took, each in the opposite direction? The difference between us is simple, many don't see it unless you know us, is that small of difference. I had help. He was left in the dust.
It is wrong to love like me, to love the Villain when you're a Hero. To love the man you're fighting against, the man whose team is trying to ruin your life, to destroy it. It's wrong to love a criminal, it could risk my career, my future, my life.
If its so wrong to love like me then why does it feel so good? Why do people read about my kind of love but hate me when I feel it? When I live it? Those fantasies they read coming true before their eyes yet I'm the one in the wrong? I'm the one who should be punished? No.
It's not wrong to love like me. It's wrong to hate like you. To hate on a love so pure, a love that started between two kids who wanted to escape the harsh and violent childhood they lived in, a love that blossomed through trust and care. It's not wrong to keep the other safe with subtle warnings so they were prepared. it's not wrong, not to me.
It's not wrong to love like me, not to me, but society says differently. I can never look his way with a smile if I see him in public, no friendly hello, no hug I crave so dearly. No, I have to fake it, we have to keep our love safe. We ignore, we fight, we yell and we harm, all with guilt and apologies hidden in our eyes as they cross.
After all our ups and down, our lost and found, our past and present. After all our shared laughs, smiles, tears, sweet kisses of longing under the cover of the night sky, the hidden hugs in the shadows, the whispers muttered into the wind, all those letters sent because we can't risk our texts being read. After all that, all those times our eyes crossed and softened as our gazes met, as smiles stretched onto our faces, tears well up our eyes. After all that, is it still so wrong to love like me?
