No
The decision is made.
And the scream comes
Shattering in its intensity
Waiting
Pushing
Begging
Dying to be heard
No
The single syllable seems small upon the air
Two letters
Two letters that manage to contain
All the pain
The hatred
The betrayal
The waiting and the loss
No
A monosyllable that can only be heard
By a girl who wasn't there
A girl who wasn't real
A god who takes the joy
And leaves the darkness
No
This is the darkness
That they left him in
Never caring if he feared
Or if he loved
Or if he cared at all
No
Because his love
From this heart that could have held the world
But was beaten into silence
By their ignorance
By their silence
By their apathy
His love cannot be born by any lesser girl
No
She could not have done it
She never could have
Even if she tried
For a hundred years
Still
No
There is a simple quality to his love
He only wants to hold her
To know that she is his forever
But her fear
Her love
Her eyes
Keep her from seeing this pure purpose
No
And those of the world
The ones who shunned him
Drove him from their company
Cast him into darkness
Then hated him for the darkness he took in
They could see only his face
For they were blinded by the full brightness of his soul.
