Leaving is a Worthless World

Her eyes stop me,

From laying a single finger on her.

The hope that had flooded them,

Had not yet receded,

And I think to myself,

How could her eyes not yet be drained?

Her mind,

A pathway to her soul,

Grown over,

With vines of thorns.

She cuts me,

But I move forward,

Despite how hopeless I feel.

Her heart is a Sun.

A bright light that can not be dimmed.

A blinding light that can not be blanketed,

With a black sheet,

Of my depression.

And yet,

She stands now,

In front of me,

And grasps my hand,

And somehow,

I know,

She will not leave.
