#Vessel knows their love isn't good or real and yet he is so infatuated by Sleep that he willingly chooses death/suffering
Text
Annabel Lee, E. A. Poe // Drag Me Under, Sleep Token
I'm not sure if anyone has made this comparison yet, but I thought the parallels were kinda neat.
#annabel lee was the first thing that came to mind when i heard drag me under#the envy of angels and gods#except that on annabel lee their love is described as pure and innocent and stronger than whatever supernatural forces envy them#even stronger than death itself#while in drag me the gods and angels merely take a position of spectators because She/Sleep is the one dragging him to his death#Vessel knows their love isn't good or real and yet he is so infatuated by Sleep that he willingly chooses death/suffering#just to be in their presence for as long as he can#because whatever twisted version of love Sleep shows him is better than their absence#AND IF THAT'S NOT HEARTBREAKING I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS#Vessel is SUCH a romantic soul#he has a way with words that is just so...#he is truly yearning and loving his way through life#the amount of devotion he has/had for Sleep#it make you think how fucked up whatever relationship he was in truly was#ANYWAYS#it's super late and i'm soft#ignore my ramblings#sleep token#sleep token vessel#sleep token worship#sundowning#poetry#sleep token lore#darya is unhinged#edgar allan poe
