Please, please don't leave me when I'm so close to you now. I can't bear it if you disappear. I love you, my darling.
Please, find me in the forest or the sea, or anywhere wild.
I hate this feeling. Being cooped up when I know that you're waiting with bated breath for my love, for my heart.
How I long to write your name on my skin, instead of writing it on paper. I sacrifice my pen for your hands on my skin.
But you and I both know that this love is going to destroy us if I can break free of my hostile mind and just be with you.
I write this out of my fractured heart for you.
Shoot your pointed arrow at my wall of skepticism, my doubt that I do not deserve you and that my dismal fate is to not be loved. Tame my fractured heart.
