Looking at the star
I heard him wisper
"You'll shine as bright as me someday."

Despite all the hurting
Despite all the bad
Despite all the leaving
Despite all the sad

There is still healing
There is still good
There is still staying
There is still those who would

rather stay weak
when they could be strong
those who chose right
when they could chose wrong

there are two kinds of people in this world
those who do
and those who don't.

He called me beautiful
And I wouldn’t have believed him if not
For the hurt in his eyes when I laughed in his face

I have not prayed in a very long time
It’s not that I don’t try
Or that I don’t believe
I just can’t push it all out of my soul in words
“Words, words, words,
They do not reach me”
I do not know how
I want to
But I do not feel God
I pray in emotions
Because that’s all that I know
I can only hope that He understands.

I was so terrified
At my first kiss
I was his first too
He told me I was terrible

The second I only prefer
Not to mention
So sweet
What a shame

So when it came to you
I was petrified
The first time
Our lips touched

So deathly afraid
That I wouldn’t be
Enough/ good enough for you to stay
No one else did,

No one but you
