'Him' Poem by T.K Owens

He closes his eyes and begins to cry,
over and over he wishes to die.
I want to let him know im here,
but all he seems to do is fear.

Anger, hate, and hurt,
combines as he slowly tries to pass the time.
He fails to realize he can't give up,
even if he feels he's had enough.

My love for him grows so much stronger,
but his pain, it still lingers.
I'll figure a way for him to conquer,
I cannot give up, I cannot surrender.

I will no longer let him suffer,
my one, my only, that will no longer wonder.
I won't let him stay in the dark,
I'll try with all my heart,
to save him from himself, and from these gates of hell he calls home.

Dedicated: My friend, my lover, my spouse, my everything...L.E.G
