HE keeps saying HE doesn't regret it and yet

His heart bleeds grief into HER soul

at the thought of the lover HE never touched.

How SHE will ever believe anything He says

because His words always say the opposite of His soul.

SHE saved Her everything for Him, 

even Her most passionate yearnings,

While He never thought of Her and gave His heart to someone else.

How does one who lived Her life in devotion move past being a dismissed thought?

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

A winter is coming like none you have known, Bessa.

Three females waiting for Her to fail.

Flying silver causes throat blood to flow,

She took the color of HIS eyes from their hair.

Windswept ashes float in the air like snow,

She burned their homes and HIS first love's...

Almost nothing left....

A single act...

The final intimacy between mates turned into something base,

Almost profane...

Breeding...

HE apologizes again as Her soul rends apart.

Unfolding misery, ashen embers that will never cool,

All because HE gave another HIS heart while She waited, 

Their future ruined because lust and love made Him a fool. 

The thing She hungered for Her whole life is a bitter, cold meal.

Their long, dark winter has not yet begun.
