To accept

That you are the way you are and I will have to bend backward and forward until I break.

It is hard as I am getting close to my limit, and my body is getting weaker and weaker.

And as I become as miserable as you are, I have nothing to look forward to anymore.

You have dimmed the light, and now all I can see is red in your eyes.

As we stare at each other in the dark moment of our lives, I am not sure what the outcome will be as the hope inside of me has already begun to fade.
