tormenting my mind, forcing me to hold on are
his words like a mantra for my soul
or rather my heart
to stop it from racing, being scared, hiding behind every little bad thing it has ever experienced.
making me hold on to that little spark of hope
that is not supposed to exist for me.
telling me he feels alike but
still making me feel like an alien.
not because of his words
but my mind -
it's twisted.
