Disclaimer: I do not own Teen Titans.

This was inspired by a mix of Inuyasha and Teen Titans, but it's from Raven's point of view. If the 'my one. loved one' sounds a bit off, it worked really well when I was writing it, and I'm not changing it. Thanks to animeobsessed3191 and Radcliffeluverforeverfor reviewing!

-Never Alone-

You're never alone
Not in thought nor spirit, not life nor death
For you, only one, loved one, are always there
By my side.
For eternity
Waiting to save me from those
Who wait below
Clamoring for my soul
To feed their hunger
Born of mine.
And yet
You never seem to think about it
For protecting me comes naturally
Your actions saving me,
Your words lifting me
From the depths of Hell.
Somehow, dear one
You never know
That what you do
Everyday
For me
Saves my soul over and over
From the demons waiting
Waiting for me to accept my fate and drop,
Releasing the precious hold on life's brittle cliff
To drop into the frozen seas below.
But you
You are my lifeline.
And I cannot drop, for it would mean
That you would come too
And I cannot let my demons have you
For they would
And gladly rip you into a thousand bloody pieces before my dying eyes.
And so I hold on, my one, loved one.
Hold on because you care
And you never seem to know
That you are all that stands between me and the darkness
That waits,
To have me, one day,
As it was promised,
Without my knowledge
Consent
So long ago,
And so, my one, loved one,
I wait
Wait and wonder if you know what you do
And wonder if the day will ever come
That I can leave this life,
Finally
And silence the demons of the shadows?
Yet, somehow I know that I never could,
Because, my one,
You are with me,
And I am never alone,
Not in thought nor spirit, not life nor death.
