A promise not as powerful as a vow.
I made a promise to myself, never cause problems, stay level headed.
This protects myself, I am tired of being a disappointment.
I will never cause problems, or be a burden on anyone else.
A temper so fired up, from lack of behind heard.
Taken from obscure sadness, and depression.
++++
She comes to him to shine light on his depression.
Yet the beast is always angry.
When she comes and goes doing what's right, it is frowned on. It is unheard of it.
Never seen what's in front of him, support, understanding, and love.
++++
Will this be enough for him?
Or will he say that's enough and leave forever more.
She never wants to argue to fight anymore.
+++
A Nightmare lingers inside of her, him saying
"I don't want you anymore, you are not what I need anymore."
Abandonment, fear, and sadness.
She wakes from the nightmare shaking, bursting into tears all alone inside.
++++
As the beast comes out lately, makes her afraid inside so she never says her fears and tries to put on a brave face.
++++
She wants for that nightmare to become reality, falling deeper and deeper in love with him.
++++
Will that time come, when he says that's enough?
