Hopelessness runs down my cheeks stained with tears
Acceptance was so easy, yet now so hard to find even though there is everything in the world to hold onto
I held your hand for much too long and now I can’t find the heart to let go
I don’t want to let go
I want to hang on forever and forever even though our hands have become sweaty and are slipping, slipping into the oblivion beneath in which we so gladly came out of
Because of you
Because of you
I am not alone
I am not somebody else in hope of finding out who I truly am because I know who I am
I am me
Me
And you complete me.
Together.
It feels like rain
Hard cold rain that burns my skin with every touch and I cannot move, I cannot get out of it
And this pain
This pain
It just keeps returning over and over and over again just as strong as it had before
And you an make it end
End
But our hands are no longer held by one another
A single finger
A single thread
Holds us together, holds us apart
And I know for a reason that it was meant to be this way
That we were meant to be away
And that thread breaks and we are both lost
Lost by the judgments
The unaccepted
The hate and cruelty of our ripped up world laying in scraps around the universe
Because we are broken
And so my world falls
Falls down with me
Into nothing
And I know that I should let go
To be strong enough to be able to let go of something I’ve wished for my whole life, dreamed of to come and rescue me from my chamber of defeat
But I can’t let go
I don’t want to ever let go
And so you let go for me
Knowing that it was better
But know that a piece of my heart will always be hanging on that broken thread
Waiting
Waiting for our world to piece itself back together so that maybe, just maybe we can be together again
