Darkness
Black clouds and coldness
I was floating in a thick mist of regret
Wanting to forget everything I ever was
I drifted farther into the abyss
The voices in my mind hissed and dug their claws deeper
Tears of red running smoothly down my head
I shut my burning eyes and covered my face in my hands
But my fingers were unwinding like ribbon

But as I saw my form, breaking away
I was suddenly scared of the dust I might become
And lifting my vision towards the stars
I saw the sun
And her bright hands reaching down for me
As my flesh touched her warmth, she sewed me back together
“I will protect you,” she promised “If you will protect me too"
