Between the Lines

I don't know if writings of this kind is welcomed out there; but as this is not a story, I'm just going to leave it here. I've read a handful of fics where Chorong utterly despised Bomi to the point of repulsion so I wrote this short free verse poetry of what I think she would say. It's not refined, but I hope you enjoy reading this nonetheless. 

 

You disgust me.
And never will I utter the words               
I love you.
I never wanted to be yours.
Just because I was confused doesn’t mean that
I have deep feelings for you.
All the moments we shared only meant that I
Just stuck around out of pity.
All this time, I never
Imagined myself to be with you.
Because in my heart, I’ve always
Wanted to be far from your reach.
And all my life, I’ve never
Been such a disgrace and disappointment.
Who and what you are has never
Really caught my eyes and attention, and
Your beauty and charm
Doesn’t even amount to anything.
The doubts and fears when I’m with you
Is so overwhelming that I can’t even breathe.
The love you have for me
Is nothing but a lie.
I hate you.
Just leave me.
If I have to beg, then please, don’t
Stay

 

I think we all know how those stories end: Chorong's feelings take a hundred-and-eighty degree turn because the reality of it - of her loving Bomi - has overcome her. Now please read the poem again. This time, start at the bottom.
