I will come to you
I will come to you, when your mouth is filled to overflowing
with the most bitter of tastes
When your every vain attempt to live appears to you, at last, a sad and hopeless waste,
When your heart is empty and you think aloud, "Maybe I cannot love,"
When you know something is missing but you can't seem to place what,
When you don't know how or when or why,
When you burn, bruise and bloodlet,
When the things that people loved about you once become the things that they regret
And you come out worse and more hurt in the end for taking a risk or making a bet,
Or when you've no idea where OR what you're headed for, or where your heart tells you to go,
When you convince yourself that regardless of what it says, you're too smart to follow it,
And you laugh to yourself, when you think that thought, because you know you're lying,
And all those times that in the middle of a loud, open-mouthed laugh, you broke down and started crying,
And when you feel like you can't and won't survive,
That there's no use left in trying,
When confessions weigh heavy on your heart like the shadowy memories of your past,
When you grow cynical and critical because everyone around you is shallow and vapid
And they tell you love is pain and that no love in this world is made to last,
When your heartbeat rings in your ears so loud and it scares you because it's beating so slow that you feel like you might really die,
but the thoughts in your head and your panicked breaths are coming way too fast
And when, when you feel that way, there's no one there to reason with the fear or tell you it's alright
And I'll come to you whether you're crumpled like tissue paper
against the unyielding wall of a cold, metallic cell,
and the thoughts you have then as you reflect traverse a realm
so stifling and so dark that you know it must be Hell,
Or whether you're under the open sky,
bluer than you've ever seen in dreams or sequined with stars
like a multitude of tiny, glittering gems, lightyears away but incredibly bright,
with fresh air pouring into your lungs
and the four winds playing in your hair
No matter where you are, never fear,
The essence that binds my existence to this earth is forever and
Inevitably tied to yours, and should the world rip us apart
and fling us both free, at the mercy of fate, one of us to the end
and one to the start,
I know like the pull of the threads in my heart
That whatever binds us will never tear
And if all your desperate prayers go unanswered,
If you forget what you're even praying to,
I will stay with you 'til we have overcome, until we've seen and felt
all that we needed to,
Or until our journey on this plane is done
And we both get what we deserve;
And though there is something in your eyes
that says yours is a story that knows goodbye
(so like and yet different from mine)
Some fragment of me, at least,
will always exist here with you
for however long you need it to
And darling, I'll never let you die.
