Kanaya's Decision

by sp00ns

This is a poem I wrote to depict what Kanaya what have went through if perhaps her family was overly religious and homophobic. it's very short and I may consider revising it to be longer and to tell more of a story. (TW: homophobic situation, implied suicide, character death)

Once upon a time, I was in a very dark place.

PLEASE HELP; I AM IN A VERY DARK PLACE.

This place could be akin to Hell, if you so believe in that.

I was different and that was something people couldn't accept, I guess.

I AM DIFFERENT AND THAT IS SOMETHING PEOPLE CAN'T ACCEPT.

I met her and my world went from monochromatic to a garden bursting with life.

But it was a sin. A sin. A sin.

SHE WAS THE BEST THING TO EVER HAPPEN TO ME.

AND THEY TOOK HER AWAY. TOOK HER AWAY. TOOK HER AWAY.

I am doing much better now.

PLEASE HELP ME. SAVE ME. I'M LOST.

I've been cured according to Mama.

MAMA DOESN'T UNDERSTAND. NO. NO. NO. NO.

It's all very strange the way I was acting.

I UNDERSTAND WHAT I WAS FEELING; I WAS SO CLOSE TO POSSIBLY UNDERSTANDING MYSELF.

I am cured now.

I am CURED now.

I am SICK SICK SICK SICK.

AND I'M OK WITH THAT.

THEY

WILL

NOT

RULE

ME.
