This darkness stings
worse than it ever stung before
I can feel my bones
Breaking with every moment
that we are apart.
My heart bleeds
begging
for you to save me from my mortal fate.
I cannot breathe
not for lack of air
but a lack of your touch
My sould cries out to you
but I shrink away at first sight of your hand
I want not to destroy
what you have so selflessly given
I long to be held
held away from the dark evils that
bite and tear at my every move.
But I will not risk
your existance for mine
so I accept what is mine
and save the one I love
from my mortal fate.
