She is all I will ever need.
My bruises and fractures have never healed as fast.
In her presence
her stare.
My flaws and my faults
Feeling all so far behind me.
The acts of wrath I committed
washed away in her gaze.
The gauze she wraps around my wrists
Like soft silk in her touch.
Everything I knew that I was
fades away from me like an unsound dream.
She patches up my worries and fears
With sweet nothings and her smile
That never fading smile.
She is all I will ever need.
What could I do when she is gone?
When I curb to the weight
Of being saved again and again
Without her.
She crumbles slowly everyday
I can see it.
There is no room in this world
To be kind.
I fall back into my old habits
The momentary peace in my life
is always disrupted
Whenever she walks out of my apartment door.
