All I've ever had is hope. Even when I felt everything was taken away from me... I still hung on to hope. I never imagined my life slipping right from under me, but it did. That was when the mask was first put into place. The facade that I was strong and capable. But he saw through it, saw me. The only one who ever took me for who I was, and what I was.
For the first time, I didn't have to rely on hope, that with him it was cemented in my heart that there was hope.
Until, he hurt me. Reminding me that I deserved nothing in this life.
"Life isn't that bad as long as you have what you need, not what you want."
I didn't think I could let go of that hurt, until something far worse happened and I knew a boy hurting my feelings was nothing.
Flung into the depths of my mind, the darkness of my experiences and shame of faking my entire life... the last person I expected to pull me from the dark was him.
