Hands I trust

Cw: blood and allusions of suicide

I adore his stance,

The way he idles.

Enlightened by that grin,

Occasionally flashing his silly demeanor.

Entranced by his diligence,

Ensuring I may never flinch,

at the hands that have caused harm,

never without reason,

never to my disdain.

I am beside myself in reverie,

Lost in worlds that will never see light.

I snap to,

before me,

He stands on a parapet.

Balancing over an edge,

Having not decided which way to lean.

Inches away I stand,

Pleading,

Praying,

While he fixates on the ersby.

Not realizing I stand with him,

having balanced myself.

Suddenly,

I am scared,

scared the moment I offer my hand,

to step down,

together,

he will lean away,

having planned the whole time,

to save me,

And fall on his own.

Here I remain,

never minding what is to be.

What I am terrified, will be.

Here I will remain,

Pleading,

Praying,

That the hands I trust,

despite split knuckles,

despite lingering blood,

will 𝘊𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘴𝘦 to reach for me.
