Description
i see the look
in your eyes and
in your scars
when you can't stand the pain,
when you can't take it anymore,
when you're scared and alone and you're hurting so much.
it doesn't hurt as much anymore.

but you can't
let anyone else see it
or they might just start
caring and
frowning and
worrying their fingernails to the bone.
cut down to the bone and you might feel better.

you might not think so but
he's not holding on to you
because he needs somebody,
but because he can sense your hurting
and he knows
and he cares
and he doesn't want you to be alone
and feel what he feels every single moment of every single day.
the endless days get shorter with time.
