Your tears fall and
I catch them in earnest
As your shields collapse
Around us
Don't be afraid for I
Won't let go
Holding you tighter as it
All becomes too much
Your pain resonates from
You in waves as my shirt
Hides the evidence of your sorrow
The loss you feel is a great one
That for this moment you can not
Bare alone
No worries my darling for you
Are not
Nor will you ever be
Just call out my name
And I will reach out my hand
I'll catch you before the fall and
Help you to stand
I wipe away your fallen tears
The last remaining affirmation of
The destruction in your heart
You smile shyly and I kiss you
Gently and softly whisper I
Love you and all will be alright
About the Creator

I write about murders, and murderers. I write of thoughts, confusions, victories, defeats. Of love gained and love lost. Of life in all its multi-faceted glory.
