This is super short, but kinda sweet.
Based off the song "Falling Slowly" by Glen Hansard
I own nada.
And how ironic, she was now the optimist, but now the tables have turned. He was her anchor, the only thing keeping her tethered to this wasted earth.
Beth didn't want to let the fear consume her, but after everything it was so hard to find that hope that use to guide her. But Daryl was there. She told him she was wrong, there are no good people left, and now she knew, she had first hand experience to the evils of man. That is why she was surprised when he took her hand and told her that wasn't true. He told her it couldn't be she was still there. Beth wasn't sure about that, how could she be good? She was a killer. He rebutted that argument too by bringing up Judith. Of course Judith was good.
Take this sinking boat and point it home
We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
You'll make it now
Daryl told her she wasn't weak. He told her no woman had ever been able to penetrate her heart, until her. "Yer strong Beth. Ya don' give up on people like me." They kissed and eventually made love, both of them clinging tightly to the other. They were healing. She began to get her light back and after a while Daryl told her he saw the change in her eyes. He said it was beautiful (don't you think that's beautiful.)
Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can't go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I'm painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It's time that you won
They became a pair. Not like Maggie and Glenn. No, their love was different, not something that could be put into words. It didn't have to be. Beth didn't need Daryl to tell her that he loved her all the time because they could read each other better than any language could convey. He did say she was his warrior, that she amazed him everyday, that he needed her.

We've still got time
Raise your hopeful voice you have a choice
In a world gone to shit, covered in blood and despair, two people formed a love that couldn't die. Sometimes love saves people and for them it did, it really did.
You've made it now
Falling slowly sing your melody
I'll sing along
