Together

I look up with a smile,
I hope it stays for a while,
Now I've thrown out the blade,
And I don't want this smile to fade.

But inside I'm screaming for relief,
And it feels like I'm shaking like a leaf.
On the outside, I'm as steady as a rock,
Hold the demons back, every chain, every lock.

Stay strong, ignore the voices inside,
They drag me down, I almost died.
There's a light in the distance, blurred but true,
And it can only exist while there's still me and you.
A short one, slightly for a friend who said to me that it's always darkest before the dawn, and promised things would get better.

Things can only get better while she's here.

Hmm... If you put this to music, it would make one pretty badass song, don't you think?
