I still remember the first poem you wrote for me.
I remember every single one.
When I'm feeling lost, they bring me back.

Every word you wrote for me, has changed me.
Your poetry reminds me what love is.
I love you

I said I would wait,
and I'll wait forever,
so darling, please,
say yes

I stare into a camera, the only eyes I ever see
laid bare before it, it sees everything
even through layers of clothing
it exposes the deepest parts of me
things I would never let anyone see

I am so open, yet completely reserved
I share everything so I don’t think about the hurt
everyone knows who I am, what I’m like
but nobody knows how I’m feeling inside

the trauma I have
and the pain that I feel
the struggles of suffering
and learning to heal
I’m still moving forward,
hoping it’s true
that time really does,
heal all wounds....

you’ve written for me
I’ve written for you
you’ve written for many
I’ve written for few
but from the moment I met you I knew
it would only ever be You

Spotlighted like some movie star,
how do you stand, being so far?
Lights that glare on polygraph eyes
twitching at truth instead of lies.
Gave your life to forbidden love—
find me some thorns, make me a glove.
Capulet to my Montague? Try:
summer red to my winter blue.

In my heart there are hopes and dreams,
and all different beautiful things.
In my heart, there's a sunrise glowing and a warmth that holds me there.
And I think of the beauty in the world all around, in the clouds that roll across the hills,
In the clean smell of the rain, and the colours of the fall,
And it makes me happy, and I wish that others saw it too.

If you love your children, are you sure they know?
Have you said the words out loud?
Are you listening with your heart, when they're sharing theirs?
Have you given us a chance to make you proud?

Do you know who I am?
Do you really know?
'Cause you can't tell from looking at me,
That underneath all this happiness, inside there's a part of me nobody sees.

I wonder who I am.
Who am I?
I wonder who I'll be.
Who will I be?
What will my life become?

There are just so many questions inside me.

Am I good enough?
Am I pretty enough?
Can I learn not to care what others think?
Can I make a difference in someone else's life, and can others see true love in me?

I've been hurting for a while now
As much as I try, I cannot forget you

It'***** me now, that I never really moved on
I dated many others
But I was never fully there
I broke things off
because I didn't feel that spark

the spark I had with you
