A Tale of Hearts

Summary:

A short poem about Eve having to cope with her loss, but "their" souls and hearts will forever be one.

Notes:

I just noticed that I wrote and published this thing a day before Jodie Comer's birthday (which was yesterday, today is March 12, 2025).

This is not a fixit but a lyrical attempt of coping with the pain of loss and mourning. A bit heavy, I'm afraid... It was inspired by the closing song during the final "scene" (if we shall call it that). The line "...her heartbeat all around" had pushed me over the cliff when I had seen it the first time. A scene that broke the hearts of millions... :-(

First published on the Killing Eve Subreddit.

Work Text:

In shadows deep, where silence softly fell,
Eve whispered love, a bond that none could see,
A tale of hearts, like that of Villanelle.

Her touch, a spark that only time could tell,
Yet death approached with hands so cold and free,
In shadows deep, where silence softly fell.

But love endures, a flame no end can quell,
Eve's heart remains, as boundless as the sea,
A tale of hearts, like that of Villanelle.

Though bodies fade, their spirits find their spell,
Together still, beyond eternity,
In shadows deep, where silence softly fell.

Love conquers death, no sorrow can dispel,
For Eve and she, forever will they be,
A tale of hearts, like that of Villanelle.

So through the dark, where time may cease to swell,
Their love will live, forever wild and free,
In shadows deep, where silence softly fell,
A tale of hearts, like that of Villanelle...
