I love you more than anything I name
I know love has tendency to stain
I’m telling you I can’t get through this pain
I don’t know how to not feel this way
So I ask you please ****** stay

I realize healing isn’t that far away
But I know I won’t make it anyway
I’m telling you I’m not playing any games
I just want you to please ******* stay.
I didn’t realize that I could feel this way.
Trust me this wasn’t the plan today.
I didn’t know that I could be this way.
Guess my feelings just change.

Seems like everything’s in black and white.
Then I find the gray area and nothing is right.
And I know you didn’t sign up for this.
But I’m telling you, here it is.
What if he leaves?

Before
My biggest fear is loving him too much.
I’m not afraid of the dark.
I’m not afraid of bees.
I’m not afraid of ghosts.
I’m not afraid of sharks.
I’m not afraid of heights.
I’m not afraid of death.
I’m afraid I’ll love him more than he loves me.
The most painful feeling is loving someone more than they love you.
I told him this.
I warned him I love too much.
I warned him before we even said love.
And he said

Me too.

Now
we love each other equally.
So if I ever wonder how much he loves me.
I think about how much I love him
And then I smile
Because I know he loves me that much too.
And that is something I can say
Without a single doubt in my mind.
You never forget your first love.

Words have power in them.
God spoke us into existence.
Therefore we have the gift of speech.
Not in the way you’re thinking.
You can’t say “I need $20”
And suddenly it’ll appear in front of you.
It doesn’t work that way,
But I’m sure many of you have already guessed.
Telling someone they’re beautiful
Makes them beautiful.
Telling someone they’re intelligent
Makes them intelligent.
Telling someone they’re worthless
Makes them worthless.
Words have power in them
Chose your words carefully.
They may make a difference in a life.
You may never know the difference you’ve made
But why not try.
Being kind doesn’t hurt anyone.
It’s so simple yet so uncommon.

Tell the next person you see
That they’re beautiful.

It’ll make they’re day.
Because even if they don’t believe it themselves,
They know that someone else does.
Just be kind. It won’t hurt you.

The truth is
You were dealt these cards by chance.
No one is out to get you
Or ruin your life
It just is that way
And that’s the saddest part
And you can’t blame anyone
But yourself
Something I realized

Suicidal tendencies
Tend to be relentlessly
Called together by embassies
Back and forth we swing
We swing

Called together by the seas
Sun and moon and stars we please
Tell the world our cross will bleed
Let them know our eyes can see

Fifty shades of blue and green
Colors not yet to be seen
Listen listen to the screams
Minds and hearts all but redeemed
Just something

If a guy compares you to his ex, he’s not over her. Plain and simple. He’s trying to give himself reasons of why he SHOULD be over her.

Sometimes my heart and my brain,
Don't like to speak.
My heart will run before
My brain can even think.
My brain will be confused.
And my heart will be crying.
My heart will be broken,
And my brain will be lying.

Sometimes my heart is full
And my brain is empty.
The thoughts will just leave.
Without warning.
And my heart will fill.
With the thoughts and memories.
That aren't supposed to be there.
That isn't there place.
I want them to go back.
I want my brain to take them back.
Apparently they don’t do that.

I guess they don't want to.
Maybe my brain is cruel
And my heart is kind.
So they want to escape.

They want to escape my ugly mind.

Sometimes my heart is too open.
And I just need to close it.
But it's hard to do that.
Because it's not just a door,
you can slam shut.
Walls have to be built,
And watch towers have to be on stilts.

And what if someone
tears the walls down?
What would I do then?
My heart would be used to seclusion.
It would have to adjust.
My conclusion,
It's a repetitive cycle.
One I can't break.

My solution,
Let the walls stay broken.
Just for a little while.
If your heart gets hurt.
Let it hurt.
There's no use in hiding,
From something that
is going to happen anyway.
Either way.
Life's not a fun game to play.
