Dedicated to someone who makes me wanna be a better writer.
You are the light in my darkness,
the spark to my heart of coal,
the honey to my innate bitterness,
the balm for my tepid soul.
None of my bouts of brashness
scares even the tip of your sole.
My lack of proper aptness
never seems to make you lose self-control.
What did I do to deserve you, my dear Marchioness?
Let me always extol
and forget my former callousness.
For you are the only one who makes me whole.
Author's note: This is a love poem written in character to another character in one of my stories. It's a work-in-progress, but coming from a normally insensitive arrogant character, I hope to illustrate how his love makes him give an attempt at being a better person, at least for the other person. (And yes-he is a tragic character.)
This was inspired in part by a MV over a Kdrama I don't even watch so there. Wrote this at 1 am in the morning so please have mercy. You can check it out if you want down below.
