Love

By Silver Snape Silk (Samantha)

Pretending this charade

You watch me

Quietly

Dark eyes searching

Troubled and weary

Of the pain life brings

You could be mine

But you reject me not for who I am

But who I may become

Your love

Which no-one knows

Not even me

Is still to be unknown

As you push me away with harsh words

Cruel comments

But still you watch me

With your cold, tunnel-like eyes

Devoid of warmth

Or even love received

I still pursue you

You will know love

And such a love you will have never known before

Because I love you

Despite what you have done

Forgiveness

Of your sins

Your soul washed clean

I hold you and gaze into your eyes

And see my love mirrored

No fear from either of us

Just our love

Forgiving and understanding the wrongs

As we join our souls together

Hope

For a new future

Your eyes are full of love

Love for me

Beloved

Why do you cry?

I will never leave you

I will always be at your side

I will fight your demons

Just close your eyes.

Sleep now.
