He wants to be her knight,
but she doesn’t need saving.
* * *
Boys before
kept her in tears,
kept her in chains.
Holes ripped
in the world
by their passion.
With you
she feels less
pain.
She feels
less.
Poetry through the Seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer
He wants to be her knight,
but she doesn’t need saving.

Boys before
kept her in tears,
kept her in chains.
Holes ripped
in the world
by their passion.
With you
she feels less
pain.
She feels
less.
Family.
Not those we are born to, but those who make us whole.
Not what tears us apart, but what ties us together.
