On Painful Goodbyes
A sparrow traveled
over sweeping hills and trees
through darkness
through wind
and sleet
and rain
to see her
waves crashing over sharp
and twisting rocks
the foam carrying the small thing to depths
unknown
She sang out with the storm
You should not be here, darling
I cannot love you this way
It could not hear her
over the gulls
and the sailor’s cries
she wept
salted tears that leathered skin
thick black oil
heavy with a lover’s grief
surely you will die
if you stay with me, darling
the sparrow sang
spit
coughed up seaweed and a faint laugh
then die I must
if you release me
I will simply crawl back to you
what better way to show me your love
than to fill me with it?
Sparrow bones
stripped clean from algae and a trembling caress
will sink like a stone
like a deprived fisherman
finally returning home
And in the stormy night
when she wails like a hound
cracks the ships who come to her
pulls the sailor’s down to see
what she’s done to her darling
I will awaken again
over the hills and trees
past the dark
and the wind
and the sleet and rain
and I will begin my crawl
back to her

wait I just got to Hateno Village................. am i losing my mind or did they literally make Link and Zelda like, casually common-law married?? She moved into his house, her diary states he's been "by her side" through it all?? The table has two seats and two place settings but there's only one bed??????? She has his hair band stowed away???????
