Today I have smiled,
Smiled more then ever,
My family is all getting along,
And I'm happy with the way I look for now,
I'm seeing a few old friends,
My girl is going to be able to see me soon,
My life is turning right side up for once.
Just a few more things I need to get right.

Don’t text me when you’re drunk
Don’t even say my name when you’re high
Don’t think about me when you’re with her
Don’t reduce my worth to that

I haven't heard from you in a while
I haven't pulled out your picture and looked at it in ages
I haven't written poetry about you in a long time
I haven't been missing you

You used to be more interested in books than Ecstasy
You used to swear for no reason less
You used to be kinder
You used to be what you aren't anymore

I secretly hope you've looked at my picture once or twice
I secretly hope you'll text me again one day
I secretly hope you miss me just a little bit
I secretly hope that if you ever decide to "miss me" again I have the strength and courage to say "That's nice."

not "I miss you too"

After a year
I could barely remember you
& our memories
and that was heartbreaking

Who is He that can set you free
from pain and captivity
Who is He where depth he does not lack
Substance He created, and in our foolishness He heals the cracks
He died for you and for me
It's Jesus Christ you see

You know.
You know.
I love you.
I've loved you along.
I dream over you loving me.
I'll stop breathing.
So never let me go.
Hold on to me and never let me go.
Because I need.
To hear you say.
I love you.

I'm sorry for being your problem now,
but your stuck with me now.

I wanted to say you guys wouldn't last
I know that was terrible of me
But I wanted it more than anything
I had this hope, that somehow, somewhere, it would happen
It hasn't been that long
but I don't want it to get any longer
and I know that it probably will
because you're "made for each other"
but what's the fun in being with someone predictable
you're a foreign country to me, and I want to explore
