Across the way

My eyes locked

A girl staring into the stream as if it’s her only escape

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNtcLDJ97D

Her fingers clasped onto the stone

Trying to find way to hold her back

A sign of reluctance?

A sign of guilt?

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLg5cugrhTm

Her hair grazed her skin,

jagged like glass

Splitting the skin

Eyes succumbed to toxins

The stare of strangers

The weight of pain

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPT7cvsv40t

I watch her from afar

My body itches to move forward

To hold her

To be the hand that holds her back,

Or goes down with her

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkhmAcCwEd

It’s Valentine’s Day.

Did you know?

The day of love and chocolates and roses

The day you only focus on the ones you love

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3fWBRKkRf

Sometimes there are haters

And sometimes you can love them

Maybe because they’re the only ones there for you to love

I saw a picture once, at a school,

There was a bridge that said, ‘are you sure?’

Many people jump to escape the surface of life

To dive underneath into darkness

The, ‘are you sure?’ is a hopeless way to help

It’s just a writing on the wall

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Kj66YyAaM

I don’t want to be a writing on a wall

I want to go and help her

Can I?

Should I?

Should I let her story fold out how she wants?

Or is this not what she wants?

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13bjaOCyKg

What to do

I stand up without thinking

I advance till my hand overlaps hers

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3z71pb0Np

Her eyes lock into mine

I feel her imaginary arms holding onto me

Clutching to my body

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3m0XNnUsd

It’s Valentine’s Day.

Did you know?

The day she could’ve been home with someone she loves

But she’s here with me

Holding on to me figuratively

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA29RvlJ2m

I hold her against me

A hold of hope

I watch as a man approach,

he slips a rose between my fingers

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjrFVQonMBL

Her eyes drifted up

The pieces of glass that were once shattered are together once more

I slip the flower into her hand

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMEbTJ2ipd

This, ‘are you sure?’ Coming to play

Will she change her mind?

Will I go with her or stay with her?

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzgSDeZ1Ft

It’s Valentine’s Day.

We love and we cherish

We hold each other for a day,

Hoping that we can stay like this forever

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFFosZZ7Um

That day was Valentine’s Day

Even if it wasn’t official

It was ours

119Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKdibJvwkK

The day we met,

The day I saved her

And perhaps,

The day she saved me
