Vermillion - Part Two

This wind blows. Cool and dull. When standing next to your body I am warm.
Creatures stalk their prey. Sly and coy. When standing next to your body I am safe.



I getting the feeling you are afraid of what I am going to think. You don’t frighten me. Not even a little. I trust you. I know you would never hurt me. I have that faith in you. My brother always taught me to have faith in those I loved.

If I were to call you a monster, I’d be a hypocrite. Although I am only half, I still carry that rage of a monster.

You amaze me in everyway possible.

Those fragile hands gripping the sheets so tight. You are always so afraid. Why?

You hold so much strength. So much power. You let fear rule your life. I still remember you always being the brave one. What happened?

Maybe there are some underlying issues.

You know you can always tell me. I won’t judge you. I’ll just listen. I am always here for you. There is no need to be afraid.

The truth is you are scared of yourself. You are afraid of what you might do to me, but if you trust me, believe in me when I say you won’t ever hurt me.
