A lantern shone itself through the darkness,
lighting a path for the lost wanderers.
But not all was truly as it seemed,
for there was a deeper darkness nearby.
It crept closer and closer.
Breaking the barriers in between.
Shattering the light into pieces.
Destroying what was left
of a broken soul; a dying hope.
Though, on a brand-new day
She made her way to me,
as I saw her fractured smile.
She said, “My heart has broken, it is no more.
I can no longer live. I can no longer breathe.”
And I answered her prayers,
“Here, take my heart.
As long as you live, as long as you breathe,
my soul will sleep, sleep so peacefully.”
