You were my source of strength,
I traded everything I love
For this one thing.
xXx
These things just don't happen.
Not in real life.
You read about them, you hear about them, but you always know that no matter what you read or hear or see, it's not true. Can't be. Impossible.
Then, something like this happens, and your entire world is thrown upside down, all around, shaken-up violently like some cocktail and you can barely catch your breath, can barely began to wonder what the hell just happened.
Everyone else is confused, too, and no one speaks.
Because no one believes it. They've only read about it or heard it on the news, and they think this isn't happening, this isn't real.
Because you're human, despite what these swirling Marks that decorate your skin say, and you're mortal, despite what you personally believe.
And because of all this, you refuse to believe anything that can take your precious world, that was resting precariously, but peacefully and smoothly, on the edge and shove it off. Send it tumbling into darkness, unable to be found or be put back together.
So, you do what you've done since your father returned with your sister's body in his arms, shaking and trying so hard not to cry that it broke your heart that night.
You freeze over, refuse to let anyone in, become emotionless, untouchable. Because that's how you survive. You don't know any other way.
You never needed to.
They accept it, don't try to rip emotions out of you, or reach out to touch you, because they know they can't. They know if they do, you'll just slip away until you're completely out of reach.
Until you're just a ghost of what you used to be.

Falling in the black,
Slipping through the cracks,
Can I ever go back?
xXx
