This poem came to me Thursday night after I’d written “Sacrifice.” Almost a prequel, if you will. It kinda reveals a bit more about Josh and Hanna, their relationship dynamic and hints at their future. As always I appreciate any and all comments.
For the record: I don’t claim to be a poet and rarely write them because I’m so inexperienced.
Silly Little Girl
by Leah Saylor-Abney
Silly little girl,
don’t you feel him
waking your heart?
He’ll steal it away
and rip it apart.
Quick!
You’re almost his
inside a private hell.
So run away;
save yourself!
