Necessity

And I had to walk through fire to realise how much the burn does not bother me. I watched as my flesh became charred and started to peel from my bones. I had to watch myself be forged anew by a greater power that was imposed upon me. Through hot coal and smoke I rose and swore that I would be different that I would learn to live again.

You were everything I wasn't.
You were alive and loud and I was growing old and quiet.
We had to part and once more become the strangers we were before our paths crossed.

Out there for everyone to see and hold.
But the onlookers were disgusted by the raw emotion, they got scared of the truth and turned their heads away.
I stood and stook waiting for the few that dared to come close.
I started bleeding from their piercing looks and their hateful words.
And there I stayed one of the last romantics refusing to fall.

An empty silence as if she never existed or as if she was a dream that passed.
She no longer had time to linger, to beg.
She left, and the void came right after ready to fill the space she once occupied.
