I wrote this piece last week Friday... and i bet you CANNOT nail this one!
You will have to read it to know what the prizes are (or you can just scroll all the way down :D) Have fun unravelling and do leave a comment please?!
love.fear/fear.love
Her fear of it was
more than her
love for him so
it bit her
she was made to
crush it's head
only if,
she loved him
so piercing it's fangs
into her biceps
breaking veins and
spilling blood -
dark thick lumps of it
making a memory scar she
would never, ever forget
espeacially to remember
if to fear...
who to love.
