text: I can't go back. I'm stricken but I cannot move forward. You were there when I needed you, but when I needed you the most, you were gone. I loved you. I cherished you. But now you're gone. &#x200B; In that purple room, curtains closed and lights dimmed down, you were beautiful. I needed you just as much as you needed me. The glorious touch of our color shone down upon us. You were absent, but still loved me from afar. I'd die for you, but that was never enough. We left the room and embarked onto a journey through the streets and came out into nothing but black and white roads. Our life was ahead of us, but it looked so bland. I was here for you one hundred percent. You held my hand as we walked down the road. You touched my face and stroked me from cheekbone to chin as you said, "I care for you." I cared for you too, but I don't understand how to approach it. The world spiraled and became a blur around us as I said, "I care for you, too." &#x200B; As we landed back into this world, you were gone; i'm left holding myself. The cold world began creeping around me. "What can I do to bring you back?" I spoke to myself, as the horrors of the universe began closing in. I'm here now, but you've left. I've spoke my last words. &#x200B; I see your face on the billboards as I'm passing through this dreary road ahead of me with the dark closing in. I wish so much for purple. Just one shred of purple would please me. I see a purple piece of paper ahead of me on the road. &#x200B; I walk up to the piece of paper and am immediately disoriented and thrown out of where I was. Where am I? I struggle against the void, yet the void struggles back. I can't do this and as a result I give up. I let the void fill my lungs. "Please take me." I say to myself, as I'm pulled back up. &#x200B; I'm pulled back onto the streets and I see a gray piece of paper in front of me. I pick it up only to see that the paper is made out of text I cannot understand. I struggle to read it, but it just doesn't make sense. &#x200B; The void now closes in front of and behind me and I set down. "Just take me" I say to myself. Let this entire world burn to the ground, because without you, my only color is gone. The void closes upon me. &#x200B; I am in a purple room with curtains closed and lights dim. You're standing there as beautiful as ever and you have the look upon your face as though you have to hold me. I don't want to; I can't touch you. We embrace. I can't get over you, despite how many times I've went through this painful void. I love you, but you can't stop and neither can I. I love you.
