A Girl I Know

23 1 5
                                    

She's the bright sun in the dark abyss I'm trapped in.
She's all I see within these shadows.
She's a perfectly wrapped gift from heaven, I couldn't ask for more.
She's the most perfect thing I've ever had in my life.
Though I am temperamental and problematic, she stays.
She stays with me in the shadows, making everything light up with joy.
Her angelic light drifts outward, smothering the lonely darkness.
She is my savior.
She doesn't know how grateful I am to have met her that sad, gloomy day.
She gave me hope.
She gave me a reason to stay in this world.
I just hope her light doesn't fade away into the darkness that fights to stay.
I hope I don't corrupt her.
I can imagine her beautiful light growing into something all too familiar.
Then, the girl she is may disappear forever, with no trace of her wonderful smile.
Let us hope that day never comes, my dear friend.
