Survivor

I can sense the coldness 
Of his skin 
As his hallow heart 
Cannot take no more 
Of the treacherous pain 
We both felt 
In the middle of the night 
Where our souls were
Being drifted away
Without nothing in sight 
Rather than the stars up
In the night sky
Alone, afraid, outspoken 
He told me not to leave 
His side 
As fear has already 
Out numbered him
Through his eyes 
I can see that there's 
An emptiness 
That lingers within him 
As if he were trying to tell me 
Something that I should know 
Thus my mind was far too dull
To understand, feel, receive
Mind suddenly died away 
There is nothing else to think 
Rather Than a word 
That seems to
Drag my soul into the dark
Pulling me into the depths
Of the night 
Watching myself sink deeper 
Into the claws of the past "Death" 
Heart steady to the touch 
Of his cold, stiff hands 
Holding me tightly 
As hundred of eyes 
Watched us all at once 
Telling us to come in 
Wanting us to come out
Though we couldn't move 
Our bodies lost control 
We were both frozen
Like ice 
Facing our fears once more
"This is our time to let go"
Yet I could not deny
We were already living inside 
Our deepest fears
I can see a dull expression 
Upon his smile
Trying hard not to stay while 
He knew that we were far too late
To return back into the light 
Darkness already covered
A blanket onto us 
We will never be the same 
We shall forever remain frozen 
Holding his hand tightly 
Against my own 
I told myself not to let go 
Watching memories slip away 
We fought so many times 
Fell learned how to get up 
Thus our delicate hearts 
Cannot take no more
Of this pain we hold inside 
Even the man who saved me 
From the beasts from inside 
Could no longer keep on fighting
The knight had lost the battle
It was time to let it go 
Staring out into the night 
Hoping to stay alive 
I looked into his eyes 
Whispering softly 
By his side 
Feeling my heart beat steadily
To the sound of my voice 
As I told him my last few words 
Words that described our fate
"Love we will make it out alive"
We will survive 
We shall defeat 
The fears that took us 
Into the darkness 
From the beginning 
We shall survive 
We will make it through 
This together as one.
