Title: Nothing. Yet.
Summary: I loved you. I tried to save you from yourself, Lucian. Challenge poem, onesided Valentine/Luke
Notes: Well, my friend and I were joking around and she challenged me to write a poem using only quotes from Valentine about him revealing his love for Luke to Luke. So, I spent an afternoon flipping through the books for the perfect quotes. Some of the format is weird, but that's because, while I was allowed to mix of lines and quotes, I had to put them on different lines. Anyhow, I'm not a really good poet but I enjoyed this so much. The title is a quote, too. Enjoy! Tell me what you think. I'm considering writing a response from Luke next.
Just a Note: Well, here is my first attempt at poetry on this site. My poetry generally sucks, but this was a fun challenge

"Nothing. Yet."
Ah, yes. The ring
Perhaps it would be a good idea
I am sure that you don't
Agree
Not at all strange
Because she loves you
I loved
You
I tried to save you from yourself, Lucian
You tore out my heart years ago
Yes!
You
Burned them
I was not prepared to give
A cause for rejoicing
But
You are the only thing in the world
A commendably sentimental interpretation
There is something I want to show you
Lucian
You are
Different
Have you made your decision?
Do you trust, do you
Love?
It is your choice,
To ally myself
With you
I do.
Note: Reviews are welcome, I'd love to hear how you think I did with this challenge. And I have a question for all of you - am I the only one that can picture Valentine on one knee proposing to Luke?? Haha, I can't get it out of my mind! I'm not sure if Luke is shocked, happy, or mortified, though...
