TW depression mentioned
600 words
Nothing. There was nothing except the raging storms in the abstruseness my mind seemed to consist of. Winds were hawling, rain-drops were falling and I was sinking. Sinking to my knees as tears of despair ran down my cheeks. Silently. No sounds were made besides my breaking heart in my heavily breathing chest.
The salty taste of my depression was the only thing keeping me from falling apart, although in this very moment I wished for nothing else. I wanted to be released from this pain.
From this feeling that slowly but surely took possesion of me as the years went on. A feeling that kept me from breathing. From ravishing the simple things in life, like a good person was supposed to do.
But I guess that was the thing...I wasn't a good person. Full of flaws, quirks and so much more unlovable things. Unlovable. The word sounded in my head and reminded me of what I truly was.
I fell into a hole I lacked the strentgh to climb out of. And not even the rescuing arms of c/c/n were able to lift me out of it anymore. I was lost. Doomed. And pathetic at last.
I just wanted to leave this world and miserable life of mine behind to finally feel - or rather not feel - the sweetness of freedom. I was tired of the bitterness filling my days and the aching pain in my heart. Let me go. Let me go.
"Let me go...", I breathed out the words with the last bit of strength I could muster. My eyelids were heavy, as was the weight on my heart. Something that was invisible, hidden in the depths of my being and locked away from the human eye. From c/c/n's eye to be precise.
Just like I had wanted it. Be the perfect partner and never show weakness. Or else they are going to leave you.. "Never", their voice was just as quiet as mine, their shaking hands on both sides of my face.
C/c/n leaned in and raised his voice a little, emphasising the meaning behind his words: "Never." They placed a tender kiss on top of my head and I could feel their tears falling as well. Falling is like flying, only with a different destination...
"I will never, in any lifetime, let you go", c/c/n's words stung. I didn't want to hear them. I didn't want to feel the things they made me feel. I was unworthy of their love and would always be.
"You are", they struggled to find the right words and just when I thought they would remain silent, their voice found their way to my ears, "Wonderful" No. "Amazing" No.. "Everything" No... "You are my everything."
Their words were sweeter than the sweetest candy my lips had ever tasted. Sweeter than anything I could ask for but yet they were spoken out of honesty, nothing but pure honesty.
C/c/n's gaze was intertwined with mine. His face showed genuine affection, I had longed to feel since I could remember but never allowed myself. "You are my everything", they repeated and were accompanied with silent tears.
How could they love me? How could I mean so much to them when I was me? "Because you are you", as if they had read my thoughts, they answered my questions.
"I love you because you are you."
