Untitled

The rain falls softly in the night,
As I sit alone,
In the dim light.

Sobs make my body rack,
In this state,
I fall deep into the black.

My hope sways,
When will I stop,
Feeling this way?

But then before my eyes,
When the pain has reached its worst,
You materialize.

With eyes greener than jade,
So full of worry,
You come to my aid.

Your breath is warm on my cheek,
We stay mute,
With no need to speak.

Your delicate fingers brush away tears,
My wounds feel numb,
But my swollen thoughts clear.

Sure, the pain is still there,
But it’s becoming bearable,
All because I know you care.

I wonder how long you will stay,
With knowledge that I will need you,
Each and every day.

Your soft look analyzes my face,
Searching for emotion,
And I am pulled into your embrace.

You whisper comforting words in my ear,
You warm voice so soothing,
Ensuring you’ll always be here.

I start to lose connection,
But I can slip away with ease,
Comforted by your protection.

As the night wears on,
I fall asleep in your arms,
And you watch me until the dawn.
