I wrote this right after watching "The Miller's Daughter." I realize most people hate Cora, but I did fall in love with her, and wanted to remember her with this sonnet. Please review!
Requiem for My Fictional Love by Ravenclaw-Earl of Rohan
Your eyes would shine with such a deadly light
Your lips were such a lovely shade of red
Your cow'ring foes would fill you with delight
And fill all of your enemies with dread
Your voice was such a cloying, sacch'rine sound
Your mien was like a snake about to strike
But seeing you, my pleasure would abound
Without you, I shall never find one like
And many hearts you took within your time
Of men you killed, and men who you'd enchant
Yet seeing you would always feel sublime
I treasure every smile you would grant
And now you're gone, I don't know what to do
Like aged wick, I'm drowning in the wax
And, deep down, I suppose I always knew
"Off with my head," your death would be my axe
As you are gone, these words I will impart:
I loved you, precious Cora, Queen of Hearts
