I was a rock in your ocean
Your waves crashed against me
Beat and broke me down
Tried to swallow and drag me to sea
You underestimated how strong I was
Rocks are resilient
I did not falter with storms or shifting tide
I would not break; only change

Fingertips tracing your chest
Head rested upon your shoulder
Lips pressed against my forehead
These are the moments
That I take extra care
Memorize every curve of your body
The rise and fall of your chest
Your heart in my hand
So when we are apart
I can still feel your warmth
Until you can hold me again

I had to let you go
So I can finally grow

I am a blank canvas
Begging for an artist
To add a little color to my life

You handcuffed my dreams to your bed
And that’s where they'll lay, until I’m dead
