Let yourself be saved by your love for her

Bask in the warm rays of her smile
her "I believe in you" speeches
her "I'll always protect you" promises

Lean into the shoulders
that feels like home and safe haven
Of brunches and lunches
Of silly jokes and food cravings

You know that your time with her is fleeting
The hurt will be too much when she finally falls
Maybe she knows ...
Why else is she pushing Jimmy to you

So you kissed Jimmy
cause you wished to stay in her circle
If you could love Jimmy,
maybe then you wouldn't have to walk away

Be away from your light
Be away from your joy
Be away from your hope
The best thing in your life
You will never get to say is yours

But lying to yourself must never be condoned
Stop the lie
The truth has always been ...
it's her and her alone

so let yourself be saved by your love for her
just a little while longer
bask in the feeling of being wanted and respected
bask in the bittersweet bliss of being her best friend

And when the time comes
When she finally is loved by a good one
Let pain fill you up till you can no longer stand
Then smile quietly
Slowly and gently... walk away
knowing... you have loved deeply
knowing... you are no monster
knowing... you are no Luthor

Author's Note: It's been a while since words flowed easily for me. Funny that it's for a non-canonical f/f couple for a C/W show (SuperCorp)
