Response to 'The Resurrection' by ~Elfling87:iconElfling87:



My love, you have been ever so sweet
And since you have opened up to me,
I will open up to you in my own little way.

In the very beginning, I too was scorned upon,
Hoping to find love with the first crush I had.
But, like you, all of that fell apart when I was turned down,
Leaving me to be all empty inside.

For the next few years, I tried, without much rest,
To find true love with any guy that I laid eyes on.
Without much success, I wanted to crawl to a dark
And deserted corner and writher away.

Finally, I was left to the point where love
Wasn’t as important as my school grades.
So I was left to do well in my classes,
Making me cold and indifferent.

I was tormented, like you,
But a different demon came into my soul.
This demon, like yours, would destroy
All that would have been good,
But I had my stories to comfort me
Leading me to what would be a load
Of stories that led to thoughts of
sadness and unfulfilled dreams.

Then, I came into the very room
That you were in.
Sure enough, I did have my eyes
Set on someone else…
But, that would be a love that would never be.

Eventually, I had volunteered to duel with you,
Not realizing what might happen between the two of us.
After our dueling, I wasn’t sure what I was feeling,
But I felt as if I had found the lost soul I had been looking for.

Back in the room, I had to relax
For my final class of the day,
Not wanting to be disturbed.
A lot of things came to mind,
But when you needed rest, I said I wouldn’t mind
If you were to laid your head on my lap.

Then, out of nowhere, I felt my mind being all messed up
With all of the previous thoughts vanishing
And memories of old coming back to me…
Have we met before, in some other lifetime?
This, of course, lingered in my mind for the next few days.

Sure enough, we said that we would be together,
Hoping for the best in the relationship.
And, sure enough, we have had our ups and downs
Within the next few weeks,
With that one incident that would have had us part.

I cried, realizing that my very actions would have
Separated us forever, leading me back
To the very place I long since dread
Knowing that would led me to the darkness.

But, when I heard your confession on the phone,
I nearly cried out of pure sadness and joy.
How ironic that I compare these two feelings together.

But, now, after a few months had passed,
I finally believe that you are my one and true
Knight in shining armor,
Who has rescued me from the depths of agony.

I thank your kind soul and heart,
Once again, my love, my angel
For bringing me out of my dreams of darkness
And bringing hope and light into my soul.
