Dec 2016
He is my light,
my life, my soul.
He is my family
My partner
Unaccepted by my family
A long life choice
to sit by my side
Forever.

Strong as the wind
in the city of Chicago
His love falls unto me
like a tree falls in a forest
Without the timber scream
Silence
Secrecy
No one will know
No one will see

Sadness
Rushing through my mind
Once through him
His soul
Numb.
Disassociated
from life itself
Lost.
Where the darkness takes over

Darkness
The ventriloquist of his heart
Where the lack of
Dopamine
takes over the ability to
Sleep
Think
Feel
Anything real

What does the future bring?
Sitting at a desk
But now,
working.
Stress.
Dying stress
Living in the world of
Valoran
Waging the war of
Demacia and Noxus
When the real war is
against himself

Sister, brother, father, mother
He sits in their minds
but not in their world
Detached.
Afraid.
Games
work
bed.
Games
work
bed.
Games
wor­k
bed.

The cycle continues.

Sitting in a photo booth
He stares at his whole world
His light,
His life, his soul.
I am his family
His partner
Loved by his family
A long life choice
To sit by his side
**Forever.
