Etched into my DNA, imprinted on my heart, you make it such a simple
choice to choose–I'll always pick shadows if it means you'll have the
light. For you were meant for it, the sun's glory and the moonbeams' bath, firelight and starry glow. Yet I,
I am meant for other. A willing
phantom of the darkness; a depthless, blackened void to drain your
sorrows, ease your pain; I'll do anything to keep the taint of pitch from bleeding onto you.
Ever your slave to the night. Your midnight absolution.

Wow. I think this is one of my faves. 'I'll always pick shadows if it means you'll have the light.' Damn!
Intriguing
I was once like this. But now I choose myself. I do have relapses though because it's tough to do that when I'm a pathological people pleaser but I'm trying hehehe. Loved your Acrostic!
This has Mothers love written all over it. What a parent won't do for their child. Beautiful
I am thinking of my children.
This is excellent, Heather.
