a girl who writes

keep these words
in your heart
I wrote them all for you
because everyday I am grateful
for you
and everything you didn’t know
you could awaken in me

there weren’t happy endings anymore
no hopeless romance
no naive love
no relationships destined to be

I had the magic ripped from my soul
and my heart
and mind

then you came along
it wasn’t perfect
we both carried struggles
but we sparked something together
and then

there were new happy endings
and real romance
and deep love
and relationship full of two people
communicating
and caring for each other

not everyone who
comes into your life
is supposed to stay in your life
but they were all there
no matter how long
for you to learn from

girl, you’ve been through too much
don’t let yourself think you don’t deserve more

you’re not alone
but you miss your life
surrounded by love but
you feel foggy
something is just not right
how do you stop yourself
from falling again
fucking again
into that pit
the one that’s dragged you
down
so many times

you must remember
you are surrounded by love
laughter
touch
just remember
you are surrounded by love
you are not alone

I know we’re different
you don’t understand me sometimes
I don’t understand you sometimes
but I know I care for you
I know I want the best for you
I know holding your hand
makes me feel better
and I know being wrapped in your arms
is some kind of magic

it’s okay to cry a little
or a lot
it’s overwhelming
all of this
social creatures who
can’t be social

my heart is full of love
full of you
full of us
baby, you’re stuck with me

my heart
heavy and full
at the same time
hurting for my home
and finding home
in someone new

breathe in
breathe out
and be the light
in this dark
