The edge of love…

It’s quite possible to love a monster.

The beast you were, was the best you are. You concealed him well. So well, that when I fell in love with you, I gave my heart to someone other.

The cage I thought I’d helped you escape became the trap you lured me into. When you really showed me who you were – red in tooth and claw – it was too late. For me, at least.

Now you have another prey. And I’m the one licking my wounds.
