A Wife's Plea

If the nights were as dark
as the thoughts that linger
in your depressive demeanor,
than I would cease to exist.

When you wake, steam
swirls like a ribbon, levitating
above your aura, like an elixir,
urging you to hold on to reality.

You told me the other day;
" the only reason I still breathe
is because of my Mother and you",

the dark night has swallowed
every inch of fight you have left,
the weight is getting hard to hold
on my own.

I look back at times before you
and I,
it was a time of in-completion,
the puzzle is complete James,
don't allow it to scatter now.

We need to dig deep within to
over come what consumes our
world, but I can't do it alone,
I'm not as strong as I once was.

I'm begging you to help me
battle this fight, I see the circles
devour the light in your eyes,
if I can't reach you in conversation
than maybe, just maybe, this
verse will shake you and wake
you.

Don't allow the beast to snuff out
such a beautiful soul as your's,
grip the sword to your right,
and end this nightmare if you
wish too, but before you do,
make sure you end me as well,
because without you, I'm just
a fallen tree, with a hollow soul.

Note: This is a raw write and I'm keeping it that way for personal reasons. Thank you for reading~
