Unnecessary Sacrifice

-

Understanding him is a chore,

Something that I've hoisted upon my shoulders.

And sometimes it all seems so pointless.

But he needs me,

Like I need him.

He needs someone to depend on.

He tells me not to bother,

That we could never be.

But I won't accept that,

Because I don't take no for an answer.

It's not that I'm stubborn (or is it?)

It's just that we share a bond,

Never to be broken.

Without him,

I am an empty shell.

And vice-versa.

And the worst part,

It's a prophecy.

And the soothsayer,

A delusional woman.

It may,

Or may not,

Even happen.

It could be,

Just a prophecy.

All I want to do is help,

Because he's just gambling is life away.

And one of these days,

He'll lose the bet.

It's terrifying.

He could be tortured,

Or worse,

Killed.

He could end up worse than poor Cedric.

Who could bear to watch?
