Craving and Cruelty

There is no way to let go when all my heart and soul holds you. I've wrapped my being around yours, a shield against all ills, the walls of our pocket dimension. It's all a ruse to keep you here with me, in me, a part of me kept all to myself. My selfishness knows no bounds nor to the lengths I will stretch to bind you to me. Love makes me cruel in my craving for your everything. Longing for us, belonging to nothing and nowhere without you.

I dream of a giant tree in the center of the wood where we can be and see, feel and believe that all this has not be in vain; a place for my silver goddess who wrought my return to something resembling humanity.
