My Oskar

Oskar, You are the answer which my soul has been
longing for.

How could I have fathomed that my salvation would
come to me bearing a puzzle of colors?

The warmth of your kindness has melted the icy
barricades within and awakened my hope.

Your unyielding acceptance causes me to fear the
loss of that which I have found and find precious.

Your sincere embrace gives my mind reason to
tremble yet causes my heart to leap.

Too many scores have passed since I knew the
sun but in you I know true light.

The curse of lifetimes lived has delivered me
unto you and you have lifted my reproach.

When the darkness of day overcomes me I will
now take comfort knowing that the night will not
bring solitude.

Something other than the hunger dwells within
me now, something that warms me more than it's
desire.

Those who would cause you fear or suffer you
harm shall know the vengeance of my dark gift.

No longer do I dread tomorrow or loathe today.

I am your Eli and you are my Oskar.
