The Battle That Was Never Won

I was your heroine fighting my hardest battles for you. Taking every single bullet and hit just to make sure you don’t take the burden all to yourself. I was your shield everytime life gives you the toughest and hardest blow. I was your saving grace making sure you don’t stray too far from the right path. I was your home when your house was barely even a shelter. I was your companion during your life’s hardest battle but this time you chose to leave it all behind, while here I am laying scarred, bruised and wounded when all I ever wanted was to fight with what’s left of my perishing life.

But I still choose you, even if you weren’t mine to choose anymore.
