Protector

Time flies and I’m blurred.
I stretched myself across the world.
I try to cover all the bases.
But I’ve spread myself too thin.

I’m falling apart again.
Fraying at the edges.
Splitting at the seams of my life.
I can’t sew myself up again.

I fight this losing battle.
Day in and day out.
I’m at war with myself.
Neither of us will win.

We’ve lost ourselves at the bottom of this pit.
Constantly trying to find a way out.
Then I found Bella.
And we hid.

She butchers her way through our life.
Slaughtering everything that we ever loved.
She’s destroying us.
I can’t keep us all safe.

She’s killing us.
I’m the weaker of the two.
She screams at me to kill us all.
It’s the little one’s voice that saves us.

I protect her.
I’ve hidden her deep.
Bella will never find her.
Bella can’t win!

I need to keep is safe.
Help us! We’re dying!
She’s murdering us from the inside out.
You need to keep us safe.
