Yes, this was majorly inspired by the song 'Love of my life' by Queen. It wasn't at first but as I continued writing it I realised that the lyrics resonated with how it was going and had the song on repeat, so of course I had to throw in a few references. I 10/10 reccomend listening to that song.

Love of my life, don't leave me
You've stolen my love, you now desert meThere were three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, and you were alone for three hundred and sixty-four of those days.
Because on one of those days, you were blessed with the presence of your love, Tom Holland. That was for one whole day, twenty-four hours out of eight thousand seven hundred and sixty. For some it would be classed as a gift, something to look forward too but for you, it was the effect of a curse.
Because you knew that as the clock met the twelve mark you'd be torn from his arms and he'd begin a pitiful journey back to the underground while you– you'd spend the next two to three days wallowing over mug after mug of cold tea, the shirts that smelt like him (ash and mint– an odd combination, but one that worked.) and old memories.
Because before the law- or what Tom called the curse was placed, your days were filled with constant laughter, varying dates that reminded you of your teenage years again and trouble, lots of it. Because Tom was trouble, but in the very best way possible and before the curse you were even given an engagement ring.
You still had it, the ring that was the colour of his wicked crown and now, it hung around your neck on a silver chain. Even if you could never get married, because it was like you had a piece of him everywhere you went even if you also drape yourself in his shirts and hoodies. (He made sure to always bring one over every year)
Maybe you were just holding onto false hope. Maybe a strong part of you still believed that you'd get married to him and he'd come up to live with you in the mortal world and you'd wear a pretty white dress, him in a monkey suit and there'd be a cake after– your family and friends would all be there and after you'd go on a romantic getaway to somewhere hot like Hawaii, because Tom liked hot places and despised the cold. That was one of the only things he complained about when you used to get to spend every day together in London. You even talked about going to France and various places in America.
You knew it was all dreams, simply fantasies.
It was all false hope and it was hanging by a thread.
He was trouble with his jet black wings that could protrude from his shoulder blades and hang over his head, the ones that you'd run your fingers through and savour– and the sharp teeth that could bite through the flesh of those that wronged him. You'd never seen it but you could only imagine. He was trouble- handsome at that with the ashy grey and ruby red crown that only you got to touch and had even tried on, and trouble from the things he told you about the underworld– a place you were forbidden from entering despite Toms eternal love for you.
And on that one day a year he got to visit you... he'd notice how you'd only grown older while he remained youthful. You weren't blind to the changes either, that every year left you more plagued then the one before.
