I believe Heaven is real because I know someone like you can't simply stop living once your time is up,
and when people would say there's a reason for everything that happens
I would laugh.
Because surely they had never seen the dark side of a human soul as I had and it was all for what reason?
But then I met you and it all started making sense.

We found each other at a time when life had just opened up for me.
How quickly you became the home I never knew I wanted.
Weeks came and went and we changed with the days,
friends we loved dearly we forgot,
while others we still remember daily were ripped from our chests.
Your heart smashed to pieces like glass shattering on a floor,
and mine mangled and never healed,
we forged new ones together.
Now I carry you with me every place that I go.

When miles separated us we grew stronger,
a vow spoken without words that neither can break.
Each shadow of my thoughts that seems to haunt me
is no longer feared when you reach out with your words like light.
The truth I look for when nothing seems sound is always where you are.
You're my sense of reality though madness fills my mind.

Some days I feel I am composed of unlovable parts,
that the demons of my past have taken me captive forever,
but then you tell me to you I am good enough,
and in the nick of time you have saved me once again.
