My life line was about to go flat, and then you kissed my lips. And suddenly my life line went back to normal as you saved my life. The string was about to be cut, and then you ran in screaming my name in a panic, and it all became to real. You really did want to be with me, the voices in my head were manipulative and I let them win the battle in my head. But when you ran into the room screaming out for me, they went silent knowing that I'd figure out that you really needed me. I tried to interpret your words as lies so it wouldn't hurt as bad when I said goodbye. I tried to burn our bridge, but you just kept climbing across to get to me no matter how many problems I threw to you. Ladder over ladder you climbed to get over the wall I built to try to shut you out. But no matter how loud the voices yelled or how high I built the walls, you always found a pathway back in. I never had a chance to say thank you for saving my life. You taught me what love really was, and why everyone is so obsessed with trying to find it. Love is putting another persons needs before your own, making sure they have everything they need and helping them when they need you the most. Love is spending forever with your best friend, the person you know won't give up on you. But it's hard to love when I have a knife digging deeper in my spine. I'm trying to let you in and let you see me, but every time I call your name the knife jabs deeper and deeper and I fear one day this knife will kill me. And as I lay in this hospital bed writing to you, I'm wishing I was no longer 22. Still so young, but still feeling like everything is falling apart. So please stay by my side, and don't leave me alone in the moonlight.. we've come so far it'd be a waste to give up and throw away the love we share. You're everything ive ever needed, you're everything I see. You make me feel like a freshly polished gold medal, brand new for the world to see. But the burns from the past still leave scratches all over me. So please don't hurt me, with one my scratch I could crack and fall apart. You're my lifeline, please don't let me fall flat..
