Break Me Down - (BoyxBoy)

Two people in one body, existing side by side. They both balanced each other out, like light to dark, sun to moon.
They need each other to keep the monsters at bay. They need each other to keep alive from the tortures of a serial killer's hands. Their world only had hate, malice and pain; there was no space for love when all they saw was fear and blood.

R. needed Tev.
But controlling his other personality wasn't always easy. It’s not simple having multiple personality disorder. Sometimes R. couldn’t hold back Tev’s exploding anger towards other people, and Tev couldn't stop R. from his own self-hate.

Years after that hell - no matter how much they try to escape - their hearts don't open for anyone but themselves. They're orphaned and alone, but they won't let anyone into their damaged world. They don't believe in trust or love. But when R. and Tev end up getting adopted by two men, they have no idea how to act. They had never grown up with the love of a family. No matter how much they push, the men never flinch away. The two men continue to love them despite everything.
Their walls were falling bit by bit… crumbling apart.

Now, with their souls exposed, how will they fare? That’s not the worst yet… because soon enough they also get the attention of this other boy.

Maybe it's not so late for someone to break them down, and show them that they don't have to face their monsters alone.

"Even in the grave, all is not lost." - Edgar Allen Poe.

*****************************
Fear of hurt,
Fear of betrayal.
They will never see the kindness that had already faded.
Dark like the jaws of a beast, the world can kill them.
Simply with a snap,
Their hearts will crumble so easily.
But hope is not that frail, and life is not that merciless.
In the air, there is a ray of light.
It is there.
Weak, but there nonetheless.
These fallen angels have become lifeless,
But hope lies strong in the horizon.
