Drowning in the darkness
I scream out
For anyone
Anything
Everything
There’s no answer
My hands stretch out
But meet with nothing
Just pitch black emptiness
The only feeling left
Is that of my hot tears
I get ready to embrace death
To give in to that sweet oblivion
Suddenly
Fingers lace with mine
Darkness fades into blinding light
We face each other
Blinking as our eyes adjust
Our hands still locked together
You smile at me
For you had been
Lost in darkness as well
My cheeks warm
In unison with my heart
You pull me in
Until I’m wrapped in your arms
I fit so perfectly
And I know
The instant
You lips
Meet mine
That you are exactly
What I was calling for
Because I know
You wouldn’t let anyone hurt me
You would do anything for me
You would be my everything
