Breaking

I sat alone in the dark during the day letting all the tears and blood say what I never could. The demons screaming in my head now don't seem as dread as they should. Darkness and pain have become my friends seen around every future bend coming for me like they would. I built up every single wall in my mind just to watch it fall. Surviving? It never could. I've felt like I needed the emptiness and all the loneliness. Longing? Like I should. But I sat with you shining during the day as "I do" was all I had to say. Breaking? I never would.
