Aubrey When do you stop living for them and start living for yourself? The darkness and quiet have begun to pull me under. I don’t want to be the old me. I hate that weak, spineless woman.

Aubrey When do you stop living for them and start living for yourself? The darkness and quiet have begun to pull me under. I don’t want to be the old me. I hate that weak, spineless woman. But how do you find yourself when you don’t even know who you are? At night, a shadow chases me. He’s always in the background, keeping watch. When I begin to think my demons are becoming too much and I just can’t anymore, there he is. My real-life demon. Everyone little girl wants a white knight to come and save them.

Then, out of the darkness came a fire. She makes me crave something I never knew was possible for a man like me. From the shadows, I watch her, and what I see stirs something. There’s a fire sparking. My only hope is that my darkness won’t smother it completely.
