Sonnet #1010

Summary:

A sonnet dedicated to my beloved husband Reigen Arataka <3

Notes:

It's been so long since I last attempted to write an original sonnet. The last time was in high school and that was a few years ago lol. Anyways, I tried really hard so hopefully it's decent! (I do think the rhythm is a little off but idk how to fix it.) Any constructive criticism is appreciated! I wanna improve my sonnet writing skills 'cause it's my favorite kind of poem. The highschool English teachers were onto something... Shakespeare really do be the goat.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Of great powers and psychic strength you did falsely proclaim,
For cash and selfish reasons, others you have misused.
You duped and took a fatal risk to raise your name and fame,
A shameful fail emerged and of fraud you were accused.
Nervous, sweaty hands and low self-esteem,
You hid so fiercely from Mob, what was your inner truth.
Lonely and forgotten, you had nothing but a failed dream.
Yet once reminded of what had been aspired in your youth, 
A shift towards honest independence was conceived
To help others and support your student anew.
But of all the lies you’ve told and people you’ve deceived,
There’s one thing since the start that you have proved was really true

You cared for Mob, that shy, sweet boy in a manner so sincere 

That, along the way, to my heart you became so very dear.


Notes:

Chat, is it wrong to tag this as an x reader? I mean, it's a love poem so really the narrator is the one with the feelings, but the narrator is technically me/the reader sooo...?

If y'all think it shouldn't be tagged as such, I'll change it. I know that I get pissed off when someone tags something as an x reader and it's actually just an OC so I gotta make sure I don't do the same lol
