Every Breaking Wave: A Tragedy
Greek Monologue based on Hero and Leander
By Devin JamesPublished 6 years ago • 1 min read

Waves of Elysium
Love is always blind.
It blinds even the clearest eye.
I know that now.
I still remember those nights where I'd guide
you to my tower.
Our love was forbidden, but that's what made us
come together even more.
But Fate herself denied us our everlasting love
oh how I miss you so, Leander.
If only we would've been more free to love
If only that cursed storm didn't wipe out all
the light.
oh how I miss you so, Leander.
And I pray to the gods we shall meet again
in the fields of Elysium.
These waters feel so soothing as I submerge
I'm coming home, my love.
Guide me to Elysium.
- Monologue written by Devin James
