The Me That I Became

We were destined to never end up together. You an empath, and me the woman who can’t feel anything. It never should have worked.Then our hands brushed together. It was serendipity—a happy accident that made me experience the world like I never had before. You said all the right words, and for a time I remembered what it felt like to be alive.But my shadows have returned, threatening to extinguish the light you brought into my life, and I’m terrified that our future together is slipping away. I need you now, Brandon. I need you to chase away the demons, to make me whole, and to teach me once again what it means to love.
