Chapter Text

dancing with our swords

i have the advantage now

striking from above

 

 

face down in water

i was chastising my wife

giant, stubborn wench

 

 

the bloody mummers

tied together the lovers;

a sapphire dowry

 

 

vomit, shit, and tears

the knight's hand is festering

unjust punishment

 

 

demigod in the steam

beaten, broken. glorious.

naked before her

 

 

she holds me so close

more gentle than i deserve

light in the darkness

Notes:

I was annoyed at the amount of comments I got about my word count.

posted as they come to me on @bdtarthiana

Chapter Text

the kingslayer's kiss

desperate, needy, consuming

burning for the maid

 

 

she is everywhere

eyes of sapphire, eyes of dawn

freckled with the stars

 

 

pressed together now

ruined flesh against my skin

his racing heartbeat

Chapter Text

the dress unfitting

putrid pink and lined with fur

humiliation

 

 

fighting tooth and claw

the bear and the maiden fair

he jumps, recklessly

 

 

once, I dreamed of her

naked, sword in hand aflame

a beauty, a knight

 

 

breath hot on my neck

well kissed lips, blush like fire

oh—oh—how lovely

Chapter Text

sparkling sunlight

kissing my face with its rays

i am drunk on it

 

 

shattered and broken

no longer the proud lion

love me anyway

 

 

her smile: breathtaking

her laughter, joyous and loud

as sweet as a song

 

 

each day my love grows

for you, my moon—my sunshine

my sweet wife, brienne
