Blurb : In an instant, my world turned upside down

Because of one incident, my life will never be the same

 

Every day I struggled to breathe

Every day I went through the motions

 

I felt too much

I was numb

 

I was drowning

I was lost inside the black

 

So they made me go there

I was already there, watching from the dark

 

And then I met him

And then I saw her

 

He scared me to death

She took my breath away

 

He was darkness

She was my light

 

They whispered he can’t be touched

She was the only one I could touch

 

I couldn’t be with him, they needed me

I fucking needed her

 

So I told him I would be his friend

I told her I would be her friend. For now.

 

But I couldn’t resist him for long

She finally realized that she’ll always be mine

 

We were a hot mess

We were the perfect kind of mess

 

Then reality dawned on me

Then my demons broke loose

 

I was underwater, trying to break through to the surface

I reached out my hand, trying to pull her to shore

 

Could he really help me?

Would she accept me, scars and all?

 

This was us

This was our story
