#the irony of being this bigshot hero and in desperate need of saving
Text
In another world you stopped
before the line that cannot be uncrossed.
In another world you passed the test
of faith, of goodness, of sacrifice.
In another world you laid yourself on the alter,
rather than accept the role of executioner.
killing in its stead the animal inside you
that would have thrashed and bucked.
In another world you are charming but cautious, mysterious but alluring.
Honest exactly when you least expect it
And caught exactly when you can't afford it.
In another world you finally earn it-
In another world love saves you.
You are the hero you wanted to be,
and the story is not a tragedy.
In another world, in another world
but not this one.
Here
he will kill you. And you will deserve it.
You will apologize while he does it
he will not forgive you.
Wanting was not enough,
You cannot overcome the thing they made you,
And you cannot be forgiven.
#fell face first back into my#dabihawks#era#and hit the fanfics a little too hard#mostly hawks whump#and its breaking my heart into a thousand pieces#because that bitch never stood a chance#never once had a responsibile adult look out for him#and so he's just trapped in hell#the irony of being this bigshot hero and in desperate need of saving#he doesnt wanna hurt anyone if someone would just fucking help him#there are a million versions of the story where things end up okay#but they are all dependent on someone seeing his agony and caring enough to try to help#and no one ever does. and thats the end of the story.#and frankly thats deeply fucked#character poetry
