“You don’t need me”, were the words that shrivelled out of his mouth
A phrase containing more meaning than the four words it contains
His expression came from a place of pain,
Pain so vivid, we could not escape the urge to share the burden of his heart
His expression came from a place of love,
The feeling that she is meant for him, as he longs to love her just as his Father loves His church.
She silently started at him as he expressed all the emotions within his soul
She stared at him as he uttered words of deep meaning, an illustration of passion
In her mind, she couldn’t help but realize how toxic the shell she had created became
In her mind, she was afraid
Frightened at the idea that she might be great on her own
Afraid that the growing peace she foundin solitude might make her lonely
You don’t need me, words of truth triggering more than a handful of painful bliss…
Her Mind, Her Story
