we met among the starlight. somehow you caught my eyes within the trembling crowds. i held you. how warm you felt against me. in my mind, i whispered "please never leave..." but my mouth is sealed with bitterness and bashfulness, and so we both sat in the secret silence. striving to form words. to cease your pain, and withdraw it into myself. everything inside me breaks when you cry. please don't die. i need you...
please stop killing what makes you strong.
why can't you see your self-hatred is wrong?
why am i far too weak to prove this to you?
i stared at you for hours, just admiring the way you smile. i feel so unworthy of your radiance. as day by day, i feel myself longing. for one moment i held you in the immensity of darkness. your shook with fear, and your whole body chilled. i'll fight away the shadows. i'll fight away the cold. i'll extinguish the pain with what little strength my touch can hold. i lay in the brevity of inumerable puzzles. why did you leave me here? why can i never hold you again? i'm so sorry...
please stop killing what makes you strong.
why can't you see your self-hatred is wrong?
why am i far too weak to prove this to you?
please don't die tonight. the razorblade frightens me. i can't imagine seeing you bleed. its hard to see you cry without falling. what can i do? oh my saviour, without you, i am equal to an empty grave. my life means nothing without your touch. i care. i need you so much...
please stop killing what makes you strong.
