Brooklyn...
Drowning in plain sight while everyone can see you is terrifying.
But more than anything it’s lonely. And sometimes withstanding the weight of being alone is worse than anything.
The only thing that helped me cope was cutting.
Sinking a razor into my arm over and over pushed air into my lungs even though it hurt me in the long run. It was the only way I could breathe.
Until I found him.
He wasn’t supposed to ever be mine and my sick mind wasn’t supposed to look at him the way I did.
Like he hung the moon and the stars.
But he made me float
And floating felt so much better than drowning.
I never wanted to leave his side once I realized he was the reason I could finally breathe again.
I knew the world would try to pull us apart.
I knew the demons inside of me would try to sabotage our love around every corner…
I knew our minds were warped for wanting to be together…
We were vile.
Immoral.
Sin personified.
But I was willing to slay every demon and heal every cut if it meant I could be with him.
