A lonely moon without a planet,
  nothing to console or warm it,
  jumps for joy at the sun's bright rays
  that chase the vast darkness away
But at the end of those short hours,
  the silver orb hangs alone in space,
  heat leaving none of its trace.
With negative feelings resolved,
 this moon around nothing can revolve.

I wonder if this is the right decision. I wonder if I have the heart to face the past and overcome it. I wonder if I really am as big of a coward as I feel I am. Can I, the one who forgets and remembers everything, let go to the pain that I've held on to for so long? Can I convince myself that I'm not as alone as I feel? I wonder if you've really changed at all. I think about how I've changed, and I hope that I've grown enough. I want to hide away from the world, but I've done enough of that for the past four years. This ring binds me to another soul, a stone to fasten me to hope. These questions rob me of sleep, and the protruding browbones piss me off.

I want to start living again. I need to close my eyes and breathe.
Everett, I hope you know just how much I need you.

What will I do if I let you down too?

I stand alone upon a high hill, watching the whole world beneath me. The wind softly calls your name as it sweeps through my weary being. The sun begins on my lonely heart, and the night comes swiftly. Stars dot the evening sky, and the hues of night paint the sky blue. Grace makes me humble and the past makes me cautious. Looking up to the moon, I call your name. There is silence all around me, emptiness that settles upon the world. There is a place within my heart that the void cannot reach. Amidst the chaos on the world around me, I feel peace.
