Shadows of darkness
Have pulled me to you
I know not why
But I find myself terrified

I'm longing for a purpose
Anything to know I'm still living
It hurts
Yet, I still need him

Don't leave
He says
As our hearts beat as one
I'm content,
For now at least

Why?
She asks
Because I love you
Is his reply

I'm hurting
You promised you wouldn't leave me
But you did
Pain still laces my heart

It is invisible to the naked eye
But if you were to look closer
You can see something there
Something beautiful

She doesn't think of herself as beautiful
But rather pain, and darkness
She writes words upon paper
Her pens filled with discarded emotions

She feels worthless
As if lacking any purpose at all
She turns to a blade
But it helps nothing

He finds her in a bathroom
And asks her why
She has no reply
Only tears

Even tears hurt
As she cries in the night
Wrapped in his embrace, she tries
To cling to his scent, to him

He tells her he loves her
And she asks why
Her eyes are clouded with confusion
He kisses her gently

Then and only then
She knows what love is
He cares
And slowly begins to realize
Life is worth living

Don't ever let me go
She says
Wouldn't ever dream of it
He whispers to her

Stroking her hair softly
He says this to her

I love you
Don't ever forget that
Not ever
Your hurt is no more

I'm here
Confide in me
I'll be here
Run to me
And cling tight
Cling tightly to me
For this love
Can never be severed
