Jagged Mountain

"There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you" -Maya Angelou

All work written by Guadalupe Monserrat

pages:

No longer do I want to be used and discarded;
Nor do I desire to be the one who has chaotic,
Cosmic catastrophes as a punishment for others’
Transgressions. I understand that I am an empath,
And that my pure heart makes me willing to forgive
The sins of others – but that doesn’t mean I should be
Forced to bear their burden, living out their sentences
in Tartarus, while the sinners themselves get to feast
On the hearts of my lovers. Its tragic that to fight the
Beasts themselves, I must become one – gnarled teeth
And all. But, I, a warrior carved from Athena’s hands
Herself, I am capable of conquest beyond what’s been

Done

To

Me.
