Loyalty.
The definition, for me, isn't so black and white.
Sometimes you'd have to betray for devotion.
It's a complex thing that many can't comprehend.
Yet it's a paradox that everyone can understand.
To Whom it May Concern:
You stand there, crumbling to pieces, and I know it.
You stand there, silencing your hardships, and I hear it.
You stand there, being weak, and I see it.
To Whom it May Hurt:
I want to, more than anything, sooth your being.
I want to, no matter how exerting, pull you from the shadows.
I want to, knowing you'll never be the same again, be strong regardless.
To Whom it May Exasperate:
She walks as fragile as glass and my fists clench.
She breathes and I grind my teeth to calm murderous intentions.
She looks at you in that way and I want to vomit.
She talks and I feel like a snake is wrapping around my neck.
She smiles and I can only fathom the spell she has you under.
To Whom it May Save:
Please listen,
Even if I don't always know what's best
I don't want you to fall,
because I'm so afraid I won't be able to catch you.
To Whomever:
It can't be the way it used to be.
Not now, not ever again.
Our bond might be strained;
but whether you know it or not,
I'll always remain rooted by your side.
Even if you're hurting me --
I can't stop caring.
Even if I will never grasp that notion --
that she loves the slightest bit of you.
Even if you'll go too far, beyond my reach --
I won't stop chasing.
Even if she doesn't deserve you --
You'll always be next to her with your heart.
Even if you don't deserve me --
I'll always be behind you with my life.
She'll never have the dedication
that I had
and I will always have
for you.
