His broken screams
tear the padded walls,
tear through my heart.
He calls out my name,
afraid and in pain.
God, why can�t I help him?
His beautiful mind now crumbling,
a cell encasing him
in madness.
I go to see him.
He is hiding in the corner,
like frightened child.
�Mulder?� I say softly.
He doesn�t look at me.
I touch his face, making him look.
His eyes are hazy,
sad and afraid,
They blink slowly.
Through my tears
I see his hazel pools
fill as well.
My mind is screaming.
Why can�t I help him?
Why?!
�You are,� he tells me.
But I haven�t spoken.
�I can hear you.�
His eyes close,
a tear running down his face.
�Oh, Mulder,� I sob.
I won�t let him let go.
I love him.
Don�t let go.
�I won�t,� he assures me.
I�m sure I didn�t speak.
�You don�t need to.�
I kiss him,
and rise to go
�I love you, too,� he whispers.
I leave and the orderlies close the door.
I sag against the wall,
sobs escaping.
