Her
Curious about him she sat down at the cliff,
Drawing patterns and whistling a tune,
She knew not much about him,
Only that things were darker than they seem,
The baggage he carried was familiar,
She found herself wanting to heal his scars.

A mysterious air hang around him,
The aura he gave off dark amd alluring,
The people around him feared on a whim,
The light in his eyes rapidly turning dim,

She wished to bring them back,
Every backslash enduring,
She knew chances of him,
Being bad were slim,

HIM

It took a while before the reunion
Silence as they battled their emotions,
He looked at the water daring to ask,

"Do you think it's cold right now?"
She smiled before shaking her head,
"I wouldn't recommend such a task"
Scoff;"your one to know,huh"

She smiled again before tracing patterns,
Her words stayed with him for a long time,
"You wouldnt do it" She said with conviction,

"You wouldnt contemplate if uh were to do it,
You still have an incomplete matter, gnawing at you from within as it is,
We were never promised another lifetime,
Perhaps when we die we're suspended in time,
Or they become stars and watch over us,

But tell me why should we?
Why would we end our life in hopes for a better one?
Why not just wait it out and on the way learn?
After all the end is for all of us."

That night for the first time in a long time,
He forgot his knife and his marking,
Rather he slept on the hard soil like a baby,
With their hands lightly entwining sleep was finally in his reach
