And how you feel like home,
When I’m with you everything slows down.
I know things are still moving,
They just seem to be so much lighter.
You’re that feeling I got when I was little,
Right after a big storm.
I’d run outside after the rain cleared,
And I’d sit and think that the world never looked more beautiful.

I’m trying so hard
So **** hard
To be good
Trusting and faithful
To be understanding
But I didn’t tell you
I was told by another
Tonight
That they love me
They want to give me it all
And we haven’t talked much lately
I’m trying to be patient
And have faith in us
I’m not asking for anything
Waiting to see what you do
It’s just so **** hard
When I have this attention
From people who want to give it to me
But the only attention I want
Is from you

when I was 3 I scraped my elbow
the bandaid healed it
I learned that all pain goes away
I didn't know
I was learning to love you
when I was 5 I hit my brother
my mom put me in time out
I learned that there are consequences to actions
I didn't know
I was learning to love you
when I was 8 I wrote my crush a love letter
he ripped it up and threw it away
I learned boys are not nice
I didn't know
I was learning to love you
when I was 13 a boy chased me around the playground
he kissed me
I learned that people can make you feel like you're flying
I didn't know
I was learning to love you
when I was 16 a boy told me he loved me
he left me along with my innocence
I learned not everything is meant to be
I didn't know
I was learning to love you
when I was 18 I gave up on finding love anytime soon
I took on the world alone
I learned how to love myself
I didn't know
I was learning to love you
when I walk down the aisle I see a man who lights up my world
I live my life for him
he looked up
and I knew
I was finally ready to love you

Someday,
I would finally stop
writing about you.
Someday,
you won't have
that kind of power
over me anymore.

love like a story
chapters will still continue
you'll be my ending

love is scary
I can't explain
how you make me feel
in the words I know
I hold back
knowing you do the same
because love is scary
it isn't just a game

I see you looking at the sunset
I want you to run out and touch it
don't sit there with wanderlust
live out your dreams
spend time chasing horizons
don't hold back
I want you to experience life
create memories that will last
but when you're done chasing adventures
come back
I can't hold your hand as you climb through life
I can only watch as you mold into yourself
just know that I'll be here
I'll be here when you look back
but baby please
please, come back

I met you
and I knew
why people sang so loud
why the stars shine so bright
why God told me no before
why the word love exists
I met you
and I felt
like I could tell you the world
like I was on a roller coaster
like the world stopped
like the only thing that I understood was you
I met you
and everything reminded me of you
those love songs finally made sense
I knew I could show you my oceans
and you'd still stay
I met you
and life began to make sense

the girls look right through me
I breeze past these halls
the boys like to stare
these narrow endless walls
I don't have a thought
past what's for dinner
for this outgoing girl
sure doesn't have that in her
but what people don't see
the depths of the oceans
deep in her mind
it kills her to go through the motions
it feels good to be pretty
but that's all she is
you need to act perfect
or you'll never be his
makeup will cover
hair can be taimed
but when your heart starts to flutter
the knife is already aimed
for the face you put on
is that what you become
he sees you as nothing more
than a doll too dumb

when I see a flower
I want to pick its roots
for I want to share
the beauty with you
my, oh my
every petal leads me to you
the wind whispers
a name that is yours
What I want to hold forever
just slips my grip
soars high above
never to touch the ground
something so pure
is something untouched
the adventure is waiting
to give or give up
