Hero(in)

I met a boy once who was addicted to heroin.

He always laughed as if it were actually a joke, saying that he was forever lost.

Nothing could make him want to get sober, not even his lover.

His boyfriend wanted to get married and have a family someday. Said

he was a hopeless romantic, craved intimacy. Connor, was his name.

Outcast by his family, he thought a man could save his tattered soul.

Kyle and Connor thought they would be together forever, a gay Shakespearean romance.

For Kyle showed Connor how to fly and before long they were in the clouds for good.

Romeo and Romeo wanted to be heroes of love, but instead they went up in smoke.
