To Be Her Hero
When I first saw Gwen Grayson, I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I never imagined the hurt such an angelic face could cause me. It pains me to think of all I would have done for her and all I actually did. I turned my back on my friends, on my family, and on myself, not caring of the consequences as long as she was happy. When she smiled at me, I used to feel like everything in the world was just perfect. That is of course, until the consequences came crashing down on me. Now all I feel when I look at her is pain and regret. I left so much unsaid and undone, and how I wish I could go back. Go back to that day when I meet her, or the day I fell in love. Erase all my mistakes and start again. Maybe if I hadn't met Gwen, Layla's pain and tears could be cured. That word makes it sound like her love is a disease or something. Perhaps it is, but if I hadn't meet Gwen and fallen in love with her then maybe I wouldn't have realized how much Layla means to me. As I saw her heart break, I realized mine broke alongside hers. When she was happy, I was happy; when she was angry, I was angry; and when she hurt, I hurt. Especially when she hurt for something I did. I felt like someone was crushing my heart when she preferred Warren Peace over me. I felt like I'd lost the most important part of me. When I begged for her forgiveness and she took me, I vowed that I would never be the cause for her to stop smiling. I vowed to be her super hero.
