Can I Keep You (Casper)

Love Like Woe

For someone so dead he made me feel more alive than ever and while inside my mind he saw my feeding memories of Max and the guys from school also the many teachers whose life energy i took but he kept coming deeper inside my very mind "i love you" the phrase i ran from because it is the only thing i don't want, don't want, and will never deserve. "STOP THINKING THAT" casper raised his voice and in an instant made it beyond my last mental barricade and for the first time i saw him how he was when he was alive, so beautiful like an angel and i knew it was him because of those blue eyes for once i could feel his warmth touch my very core along with tears falling down from his eyes.

"why are you crying" i asked earnestly for the first time in my life i cared and it hurt the weight on my heart was heavy and made me want to shut down form the shame of myself the disgust of what i have become and the energy i stole cannot be given back because all those peoples souls reduced  their life expectancy by half. "I'm crying for you Rose...you!...because i love you and i see what you've done..what your DNA and new status has done" i pushed him off of me as the hug was clearly over. "Then leave me to my toil and misery" than casper came up to me again and kissed me and i could feel the shame being whipped away and the love from his lips touched my heart and i felt myself skip a beat.

"We'll make this work i promise" i knew casper meant those words but i also knew i brought nothing but pain to the ones i loved because i rely on the taking of human life to sustain my own cursed life. Being born this way is a curse and i thought i had finally gotten to a place of acceptance and let go the joy of the worlds delights love as an example of  one delight i'd thought i'd already bid my goodbyes too but he keeps coming back for more.
