You told me
"I want to die."
Said my name,
Undid me -
Again.
Can't think
Can't formulate the words
Such conflicting emotions-
Desire
Pain
What should I say?
What do you need from me?
How can I help you?
Let me
You say you don't have the words
The words to explain why
I don't want to fix you
I want to help you
Care for you
Dare I say,
Love you?
Don't worry
I don't mean it like that.
Unless I do,
But either way,
I'm here for you.
Every single good thing
In your life
I want it for you 10,000,000 times over
Every dark moment,
Every painful memory,
Every scar that you carry-
Both within you
And on your skin
Let them be a reminder of
Where you've come from,
What you've overcome
Don't wear that without reason
Don't give in to it and wrap yourself in it's comfortable familiarity.
Walk into my arms,
Allow me to help you
Wipe away the tears
Deliver you from the slavery of
The deep cutting hold of
The dark.
-MS
