I hated seeing her cry. Knowing it was my fault immediately made me hate myself, not that I didn't already. I needed to hear her voice, know she was really here.
Some part of me registered the fact that I'd sat down, and that I had touched her, if briefly. I had said, "Tell me."
She met my gaze, looking terrified. She closed her eyes firmly, as if she was living a nightmare. Maybe she was.
"I know I hurt you, and I'm sorry," she whispered, looking anywhere but at me. "I thought it would be better that way, 你 had your whole life ahead of 你 and I couldn't take that away because of my stupid mistake - " she stops.
"Never say that. It is not your fault. Accept it, because it's mine. 你 only took my life when 你 left." I am not lying.
I realise that I have pinned her to the wall, but worse, she isn't struggling. I immediately release my hold. What right would I ever have to hold her captive?
She didn't seem to care. She leaned 前锋, 期待 and kissed me with surprising force. I was paralysed for what felt like am eternity before I kissed her back.

People down every turn
Pain inside their hearts
A girl with scars on her wrists
A boy with a 刀 in his chest
She hides in the dark
Wondering when the pain with end
He stands up to fight in defense
Only to get knocked back down again
She fights with her parents
They don't wanna support the child
She's left to fend for herself in the cold
Alone with the child
Do we see what we are doing when we say the things we say?
Do we see who we are hurting with the actions that we're taking?
What we need
Are broken families reconciled
We need hearts to mend, scars to heal and battles to end
We. Need. Love
To stand up for the broken
We. Need. Hope
To give a hand to the hopeless
We need the world to care.
What are we doing with the words we are saying?
Who are we changing
And what effects are they having?
Lets be the change.

When will this end?
Mass shootings
Terrorist attacks
Police brutality
They say it's just a gun control problem
They say it cannot be fixed
I say the problem is deeper
I say there is hope
When will this end?
Income inequality
Veterans living on the streets, penniless,
Dying 由 their own hands everyday.
They say this world can change for the better
But nothing has changed...
And I truly do fear
Nothing ever will
When will 爱情 start?
The 日 we offer a hand to the fallen
Instead of cringing back in shock
And running away
When will our world change?
The 日 we 爱情 too much to kill
The 日 others' pain is our pain
The 日 we act instead of just talking about it
"It's impossible"
"We're too broken to be mended"
"It's a hopeless battle"
I say, let us try.
