The Bargain

13Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cFFp9ZRhD

Take this offering,

my skin and marrow,

my breath carved into the void,

a sacrifice given to the unseen.

13Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fTd3N6wVo

Let my pulse falter,

so his heart beats steady,

and let my bones bear the pressure

so his shoulders can rise,

unburdened by the hardships

that cling to his name.

13Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtrD0np7U7y

Take whatever light remains in me,

the eruption of my essence,

the last, fragile ember,

and trade it for his freedom,

for the time he needs

to dream without fear,

to be without end.

13Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1xehOMRcN

Let me vanish,

a gentle gift,

so that he may stay,

radiant,

eternal.
