Scorned Love

A gripping 23,000-word fiction novella with twists and turns, tragedy, surprises, love and heartbreak. I might as well hang myself and dig my own grave,That rotting animal carcass draped over me, dragging me into the vulture's cave.I don't just feel death—I am death, a cursed thing, a blight upon the earth.A swan drowned in mud, wings torn, beauty turned to filth.A sun snuffed out, a black dove plummeting from the sky.Even the parasites flee—mosquitoes recoil, flies twist away in disgust.I am poison. I am ruined.Why did God waste his breath to shape me?Who am I? Why do I carry two names, two curses?A prison of flesh, split mind—conjoined twins screaming in one skull.Life is a gauntlet of knives, every step a fresh wound.I'd rather sprint naked through barbed wire, let the thorns flay me clean,Than endure this slow decay.I'm clawing toward salvation, screaming at the heavens: "e;I'm coming!"e;But God plays coy—the pearly gates slither away like mirages.Heaven's a fugitive, and I'm the damned thing it escapes.About the AuthorKJ De LA Jewelz is more than an author or artist.
