Its interesting, how I tend to write these things with many pairings in mind. I think this one has more a slash kind of feeling, maybe because its sometimes graphic. The second perspective is the stronger person in the relation ship, or the dominator. It could be Harry/Draco, Hermione/Draco, plus any number of other parings like Draco/Ginny or even Harry/Ginny etc.
One I hadn't originally written it for, but I was thinking about just now was Snape/Hermione. Be horrified if you want, I know I was when I first heard of the pairing. But it does fit. And you have to let the poetry mean what it wants to mean, right?
I feel for you every moment of every day
Like you carved your name into my heart with a knife
No one knows, no one sees
Because emotions don't leave scars, right?
I wish they did
Then I would have something to show for our relationship
I've never had such a degrading bond with another person
You are destroying me
Even worse, I'm enjoying it
Like being crushed against a wall by a lover
The intense beautiful feeling of connection you get
It comes with the pain, being unable to breathe, and feeling your ribs crush,
As though at any second they might break
But you still enjoy it, perhaps the pain even deepens your feelings, helps them along
That's what this is like
You and me.
…
…
Everyday
As I see you leave, I wonder if you will ever come back
And everyday
I think maybe you won't
Sometimes I even hope you won't
Because I know what this is doing to you
But most of the time, I hope you will be back
And you always are, always.
I think you want me to hurt you.
And you want to hurt me
We both crave
I won't deny that
And neither would you
And I think its working
Because I feel like I'm going insane from it, from everything.
Like we both have made our feelings into birds
And now we're shooting at them with automatics
Shooting them down.
Shooting them down.
Who will shoot theirs down first?
Who will win?
Probably you I think.
Maybe it isn't right, how we are.
No, I definitely isn't
Nothing is alright with us
With our relationship,
The relationship which is dragging each of us lower, or providing us with better guns, if you like.
But that's how it is with us
Us.
You and me.
Review my pretties.
