You and I

You were the first person to see 'me' and accept 'me'. I was happiest and kindest when I was with you, all my worries and pain, all the hate I held for the people around me were gone. I felt as if I was happy.

'Ah, is this what they call happiness? Have I finally found happiness?'

As great as happiness was, I was scared, scared I might lose him. I never really tried to hide myself since I thought he'd leave soon but for some reason, he never did and we stayed together for two whole years. When I was with him, the voices never bothered me as much as it did when I was alone because I had an excuse.

'He cares about me, he can see me. I don't have to be alone right now, I'm alone at this very moment.'

Was what I told myself.
