Challenge Submission The Muse

[Nyx]

Each time I fell , each time I died you found me.
Breathed life into a reluctant soul.
Fought me, made it matter, made me care.
I wanted to be content in my misery,
my emptiness, to embrace my melancholy.
You would not have it.
You struck my face,
You kissed my eyes,
Embraced my waist,
Bit my mouth.
Woke me with determination,
Refused to allow me to let my words fade.
