light

it's so hard to accept that you can't save someone who is in extreme need of help. it's terrifying to watch someone you love walking away from you and further into the darkness of this world, knowing you have the light. you just wanna take them into a safe hiding place, keeping them there making sure they won't be harmed any more by this vicious place. but at some point you got to realize, and accept, that people will take their own path, most of the time not thinking or even caring about the consequences because in that very moment it's exactly what they want and what they believe will make them happy. their choice - you can't take that from them. it's hard to stand by and let it happen, but you can't give up on them. never. you have to make sure they know that even when they walk down the wrong roads, you'll be waiting right where you always have been when they realize they're lost and want to come back. you also let them know that if they're so lost and can't find their way back, that you will travel any road to reach them, because that's what true love and friendship is about.
