I wish you could see yourself how I do
You're so ******* beautiful
The way you move and speak and are is unparalleled
You glow.
And you see yourself as a pale light half broken and unworthy of being lit
But you are the kind of person I would gladly be broken for
And I'm okay with holding your spark up until you're ready to hold it up yourself

You have stars in your hair that make me wish I'd spent more time looking at the sky

There's so much I want to say to you.
Where would I start?
You played with feelings that weren't yours to play with
You put thoughts in my head that had no place there
You put holes in a heart that wasn't beating for you
What gave you the right to make me feel so secure?

You spun a web that worked for you and I was simply a bug caught up
Wrapped in this
Waiting for you to deliver the final blow

In the spur of the moment you throw out words like weapons that make me feel like a raw nerve exposed

I couldn't quite figure out the way she looked at me
She touches my lips and looks at me in what looks like wonder
Like she's trying to figure out how my pieces go together
Like she's trying to pull me apart and put me together
I've never met someone that made me feel so broken apart and so whole all at the same time

I like how you make me see things
Because of you a flower isn't a simple item on the ground
A flower becomes petals with roots that hold years of secrets and memories and life so easily overlooked
