"so if you're gonna stay, then stay
but if you're gonna go,
make sure that you hurt me
just enough to
make me feel something
show me that i'm human, oh
make me feel something."

millie's pov

you know when something seems so close, so perfect, and so reachable, but right when you pull it close to your heart and whisper "forever";
forever gets stripped away from you.

your head in your hands,
urges to tear your skin apart,
wails so loud, that no one can hear you, let alone help you.

that's how I felt.

departing farther away from the love of my life.

my happiness.

my safe place.

the thought of never returning screamed loudly in my swarming mind.

my eyes seemed to be glued shut.

my head pounded, my mind burned beneath my skull.

my muscles were strained from fighting back.

i couldn't fight back anymore.

they say that our hearts are wild creatures.
i guess that's why our ribs are cages.

the warrior inside of my heart is ready to be buried underneath layers of earth, never to be spoken of again.

maybe then i'll be at peace.

but my peace was finn.

and i'll never be at peace again.

"i hope so..."

"finnie?"

"yes, angel?"

"i'll never leave you, either."

"never?"

"never ever."

"i sure hope so."
