Lighten up, little one Just because he can't see your beauty, Doesn't mean you have none Lighten up, little one As the sun starts to set, Keep in mind when the stars have met Stand up and continue to dance To the changing colors of the horizon, To the sound of silence that's upon Lighten up, little one Remember what you deserve Remember who you are You are stronger than this Wiser than this You are made to be loved Not to be dissed You are better than this How can you be okay with this? You deserve nothing but understanding You deserve hugs each time you cry You deserve all that you're not getting But please tell me why You deserve light even in darkness You deserve songs of love in the cold You deserve all the world's happiness Little one, now's the time to be bold Lighten up, little one Now's the time to fly Go ahead little one Stop settling with just getting by Go ahead little one Go and give life a try

Little One
I'm not saying that it's not gonna hurt Because it does It will It will continue to hurt every single day He will do things that will hurt He will say things that will hurt He will But it's okay It's a risk I am willing to take It's a risk I am willing to embrace I'd lay it all down Give my best shot Because I'm in love Because I love And knowing that it might work would have to be enough

this is love? this is what people die for? cry for? long for? this is love? this is what people beg for? lie for? crash for? no. this is not love. love is supposed to be like coffee in the morning, like the first sunshine after a week of rain, like seeing your first sunset by the beach. love is supposed to be beautiful, and light it is supposed to be new, and fresh it is supposed to be real, and true no. this is not love. this is some lame excuse. love is not supposed to be like hangover in the morning, love is not supposed to be like losing your favorite hanky, it's not supposed to be like getting the flu on your birthday. no. this is not love.

end
We have been seeing each other for a couple of months now No anything, just seeing each other And one day you said you wanted to spend the night… I said ‘no problem’ a little too excitedly because I really wanted to do something huge with you. Thoughts went in and out of my head while you were lying next to me. God I could live this way everyday… Under the same sheets, with hands and legs intertwined… Like all that’s not with us on this bed does not exist… Like we are all that matters… Because at that moment, you were all that matters… You are all that matters But don’t get me wrong Having you beside me is not the best part Want to know what is? The certainty This relationship lacks certainty And for the very first time… I was certain. I’ll still have you tomorrow. When I wake up, you’ll still be here.

First
The words I want to hear I softly whisper them out loud I love you, my dear You make me so proud There is no one like you And there never will be You don’t have to be blue Just feel that you’re free I love you, my dear You are so kind Let go of your fear Calm down your mind Feel your heart beat Tune in to your light Focus and breathe You are all right

Positively Self Loving
Through the silence You have spoken You made it clear You had me broken
