There were moments when I didn't have anyone else. Not even myself, but I had you. There were hours when the sunlight would burn the day away & I couldn't survive the cold of night. There were days when I had nothing to say yet all the right words would flow from your lips like ocean waves. There were weeks when my bones were stiffening & the sight of my scars were sickening. There were months when I didn't care for watching myself bleed & a blade was non existent to me. Through all the moments, hours, days, weeks & months I haven't even had a whole year with you but I know its you that I want. & if I could count back every second & turn back the clocks I'd do it all over again with you, from rock bottom to the very top.
