It's a coldness, spread over everything.


Today I tasted my tears
And they tasted salty.

<dd>I don't know why
I was crying by then
And I still do not know today.</dl>

But I know that I took
Rest way too long
Here at this place
Between happiness and lostness.

My way is gone
Difficult, and even more
Loneliness is not
My best friend anymore.

I grew up, and so
My monsters did,
I cannot walk my path
All all anymore.

I need someone
who's with me
Who keeps watch
When I'm asleep.

Who stands back to back
With me when our demons
Are attacking us.

And I also need to
Become someone
Faithful enough
To be a fighter

Faithful enough
To protect
What I am
And what I love

Because it's surely not the same.

Hi there! I've chosen you as the 129th person for my 200 Comments Project Challenge. Basically I'm giving comments to 200 different people in a time frame within a week :D (Big Grin)

I really like how there are so many metaphors for the growth of a person when it comes to life. Brilliantly written and the way you captured the many complicated emotions and feelings of the narrator is something that I do admire.
