maybe someday we’ll meet again
but that’s for another life
maybe your songs won’t always be in my head
but that’s for another life
maybe I’ll call you at 3am and I’ll tell you the truth
but that’s for another life
and maybe one day it’ll finally be someone new
but that’s for another life too
so what’s a girl to do
except keep writing about you
all that’s for another life and for another me too

the healing is here
I'm coming back
the clutter is gone
and I've pulled out the tack
I'm taking it all
taking it all back
it's my life
and I'm not going to lose track
under attack
but I'm taking it back
the pain is gone
and I’m coming back.

the way the cold air looks on the tip of her nose, or the
way he smiles with his eyes pointed down at his toes
and that curious shade of blue that will forever go unnamed,
or the person you can’t help but stare at in the marketplace.
even that misty smell in the sky when it rains and the small bursts
of electricity that explode when you hear her name.
we like these things and we don't know why; we can’t explain.
just like how I liked you, I couldn’t wrap it around my brain.

I gazed at his face
“what?” he said
“nothing,” smiling, I went back to my coffee
we locked eyes again
and held on for a moment longer

I am not
whatever you want to make me
I am not
how you choose to see me
I am not
a dream or a fantasy
I am
real
and I am
simply, just
me.

it said,
the true joy will settle in:
a contentment from within
and I will take care of you
oh, you need not fret, child
you need not convince yourself that you're satisfied
and it’s okay to be hurt
it’s okay to feel this pain
because in order to be healed, you have to be hurting;
in order to be made complete, there must be a deep lacking
and to be truly free, you will need me
so let the true joy settle in, just let me set you free.

You’re piecing together the parts of my heart
little by little
Your fingerprints are still all over
I don’t know how since I’ve tried to wash You out
I’ve pushed You away from me and I’ve blacked out
now I know that
each minuscule part of me is laced by Your fingertips
every ounce of myself has You written on it
and I truly can’t escape You no matter how hard I try
my soul will ever flow with Your echo of joy inside
you’re piecing me together
and I know that you can see
the parts of my heart
belong to You now more than ever and they will always belong to me

you’re pulling apart the pieces of my heart
little by little
your fingerprints are still all over
I don’t know how since I’ve washed you down
I’ve pushed you away
I’ve blacked you out
each minuscule part of me laced with your fingertips
every ounce of myself with you written on it
I can’t escape you no matter how hard I try
my soul will ever flow with your echo inside
you’re pulling me apart
and I hope that you can see
the pieces of my heart
belong to you now more than they belong to me

I have to ignore you
have to ignore you
ignore you
ignore
until the pain goes away
the pain goes away
pain goes away
goes away
away

with you came an onslaught of poetry
of words and colors flying reckless
bursts of new life emerged in me
and with them came a vulnerability like never before
both terrified and captivated by the risk
to finally let love in
