julian devorak||the arcana||cruel

Oh how cruel love can be. Like a hurricane's winds or like the sea's waves.

"The bonds between us would be harmful and cold." That's what you said when you broke my heart. Oh how wrong you were back then.

"You burn like a wildfire in my soul, in my heart, and my mind." Is what I said to you as you walked away.

When you left it felt like an earthquake bringing trees to the ground, like a gaping hole was growing in my chest.

So why did you come back? Why are you the one thing I can remember but you didn't even recognize me? You came to me asking for Asra, after you swore I'd never have to see your face again.

Although, I see it every day in my mind; glowing in the sun with a bright smile; laying next to me in the sheets of a bed shared between just the two of us, as your soft auburn curls spread across the pillows; your beautiful grey eyes shining inside that sweet, little tea house you used to love; your expressions as you told your tales in the light of the Raven; and your tears on the doorstep to my shop, where you broke my heart.

I could feel myself slowly fall even deeper in love with you as you took me around the city, taking me to places you never knew we had been to together before. Forgetting that we had to 'talk', I had hoped you were remembering us. I had been wrong.

You broke my heart at the docks, and left me on my doorstep again. You still burning like a wildfire, leaving ash in your wake.
