Poem
DE-FABL Darkness Eternaly Forced Away By Love By:Jessica Trotte AKA RECK He slips away silently, to escape mothers screams and crawls so softly, into bed, into dreams his thoughts became so dark, full of misery and dread and dreams repeated over and over, where he became dead left to one escape, escape to the dark open eyes, nightmares of screams scarring the heart across the shadows, his eyes opened wide he saw vanishing, the last glimpse of light tears welled up, but never did spill he swore he was stronger than those his father would hit him, make him need to take pills if he ever saw on his face, a tiny tear He would never show him, not while he was here Silent and steady, blades ran across skin crimson rivers leaving bloody trails on her then tears poured freely, in the privacy of her bed, she called out silently for help from God mother was screaming, father didn't care she was ready, to pitifully pull the trigger she crawled into shadows, her eyes squeezing tight prayers sent to God, that she would be alright across the shadows, her eyes opened wide as she saw appearing the growing white light her tears dried up, in the glowing warmth, ready for a fight though she felt loved, not the hurt from before She called out quietly, "hElLo, iS SoMeoNE TheRe?" Her voice like satin ribbons in her hair His eyes opened again, whispers in his ear, and called out so quietly, "HeLlO, iS sOmEOnE thErE?" Through the light, a vision of he She would find him, through her dreams Through the dark, he saw a rose arms curled around herself, cold her hand pressed quietly against the glass in her heart she felt a warm blast through his ribs he felt a new beat warmth creeping in like sugar water ready to seep Closing her eyes, she let out a sigh and whispered "DeAr lOrD, iM AfRAiD iM rEaDY tO DiE" Hearing her words, though he didnt know how he left his bed, and to her reached out Closing around her, a warm pair of arms Starteled, she thought he was God Then opened her eyes, and saw it was he A boy needing comfort, sent to she He looked at her softly, a rose in her hair "BaBY, iLL lOvE yOu, DoNt bE ScArEd" She looked at him lovingly, unable to not stare "bAbY, GoD SeNt YoU hErE" through the dark, they held on tight praying to God, they swore they'd survive He had her, his little rose She had him, warm arms to hold God looked down, and smiled with no sin and promised, theyd still love each other in heaven
