What is left?
Nothing.
You took every last bit of hope
And hope,
Is such a dangerous thing.
You made me believe everything would be okay
You told me you were so in love with me
You told me you wanted nobody but me
I poured my heart out to you
And you kissed the tears away,literally, and told me I was getting better
You told me we were working things out, and that you couldn't wait to move in with me,
To fall asleep next to me every single night.
And I believed you.
And I cried, and cried and cried that night
You kissed me until I stopped, and told me we would be together
That we would work on it because you wanted me.
And I've never been the one to wear my heart on my sleeve
But I am sleeveless and broken now.

You
So young
Ripely falling from the strangely fruited trees
So full of life
Why do you worry about what lies ahead?
So young
Yet hanging onto every word as if it means everything
You don't have to worry young one,
In time you will learn
To stop being so predictable and settle into life's heavy burdens and "what ifs"
Your life will stop one day
But the world will never stop rotating for you
Young one,
We have a long way to go
And you must learn that we do not fall into to love
But grow in it
You have so much to learn
But life is not about learning love,
Life is about living
Living with all your newly profound wisdom
Young one,
Do not worry about the future
Do not worry about what has happened
The past does not define you or your future
Young one,
You must learn to live In the moment
And not to turn your back on life,
But to take it by the hand
And let it guide you to who you really are
Young one,
Close your eyes
Picture you as who you've always wanted to be
Open your eyes
And that is who you are.
