She fell into me like she'd been looking for my arms for years so I swam through her streaming tears and asked what brought her down… she looked as if concern was foreign to a place where care was forgotten and love was high treason she looked back with no reply and her face couldn't deny she'd been burned before her dress was tattered and torn and she sat and mourned the happiness that once was a time where she smiled just because but the time is now and I wish I knew how to find that happiness she once held so dear empty her needless tears shelter her when the ugliness of then peers over her shoulder be warm when her nights got colder so being a bit bolder I lifted her up and looked into her eyes petrified, I realized she's been saving me all these years it's scary to know someone's living my fears…Birth sign: Pisces
