Maybe the one talked over and hushed
Grew up to be quiet, reserved
Trying to develop a voice of their own
But it was never heard

Maybe the one seeking attention
Spent their life being ignored
Experiences shape perceptions
And perceptions shape our world

But this is where we start, not end
After all, we're not cement
We change and bend and learn and grow
We can end above and start below
Beliefs can change and so can we
What we were, we don't have to be

Miracle
You cannot tell her she's beautiful,
You cannot tell her you love her,
You cannot tell her she's your world
When she's at her best moments.

You may only tell her those things,
If you're ready for her to have those off days,
If you're ready for her to not always wear makeup,
If you're ready to deal with her mood swings,
If you're ready for her to be clingey some days and distant others,

You cannot tell her any of the pretty little comments,
Unless you can handle her
Alone at two A.M.
As she's struggling with life,
And wondering why

She is not enough to win her own internal battles
-Don't you dare tell her you can handle her all the time if you're only ready to handle her at her best.
You've been through so much.
Them boys lost all your trust.
Let me be your 'pick me up'.
I'll try my hardest not to rush.

Your eyes show me all your shame, your pain.
Your words show me all your pain, your shame.
Your heart wasn't there cuz its broke, so broke.
I can fix that, I will fix that, let me fix the broken pieces babe.

If I have ever gave you a reason to doubt.
Let me show you How loud my heart can honestly shout.
Cuz when im around you that's all it'll ever do.
I knew from the very first day I'd only want you.

You are so strong.
But around me you get so weak.
All I see is gold.
Took a peek inside your soul.

But your eyes are filled with shame, your pain.
And your words are filled with pain, your shame.
I have found your heart, its fixed so fixed.
Told you I'd do it, yes I did it, yes I did it, did it all for you.

If I have ever gave you a reason to doubt.
Let me show you How loud my heart can honestly shout.
Cuz when im around you that's all it'll ever do.
I knew from the very first day I'd only want you.
Reaching deeper into my heart I managed to find this gem and put it to paper. Now I am sharing it with you all, another chapter in my life.

I'm running out of ideas
I'm losing my mind
running out lines
losing time

Tonight I might not wash my face
Or brush my teeth

Tomorrow I might stay in bed
Not eat breakfast
And just eat dinner instead

I'll turn off my phone
And close all the doors
Keep the windows shut

Sleep half the day
And spend the night awake

I'll feel useless
*****
Depressed

Finally
The next day

I'll open the curtains
Turn on my phone

Let the fresh air
Mixed with rain
Rush in

I'll clean up
Shower
And eat

I'm still depressed
Yet I'm a bit over it

See you're making new friends
Slowly forgetting about me

The distance
The tension
Less conversations

I just want the day to come
When we act like strangers

We won't remember
The days we were together

Your standing in the shadows
I just want to be in the sunlight

We can't hold hands
Oceans apart

I can feel
You slipping away
From my heart

Use to love your smile
The songs you sang

Calling it what it was
Calling it lost love
We never found it again

Everywhere I go
I seem numb
To the head

I can't feel the cold air
And I wonder if the stars are real

The cut on my finger didn't hurt
I saw no blood

I don't want the stress
I can't see no end

Dripping tears
Filled with fear
