Still, I need him like the air that I breathe.
Why doesn't he see he's wasting his time?
I have nothing left to give.
He's strong.
I flounder like a fish out of water. I'm a tangled mess, and I've lost my ability to trust. The betrayal was too deep.
He thinks he can save me, but I'm too far gone.
Still...
I want to remember every moment of his embrace.
I’ll wrap myself in the memory to help me sleep.
But the nightmares still wake me.
Nobody else that can reach me like he can, but I’m not worthy.
Her wall is impenetrable. She’s a tangled mess of pain and desire.
I want to save her, break through, and show her she can trust me.
If I save her, I can save myself.
Salvation is on the other side.
Can a headstrong football player (quarterback) and a misguided soul let go of their demons to find happiness together? Hardened from past hurts, they must fight for the strength to heal one another?
