I love him
I tell myself
I know that
We will be together forever
I don’t believe that
We could be separated
My thoughts tell me that
He’s the love of my life
Sometimes my heart lies and says
I could live an eternity
Without him
Like my friends say
“We’re perfect for each other”
And you can’t tell me
He’s not the one.

Now read from bottom to top.

We are the ones who are hard to understand
We'll be the last ones in the movie theatre
because the ending scene made us cry
We'll stop to smell the roses
because they deserve to be appreciated
We are the ones who will take the time
to learn what keeps you up at night
We are the ones who will imagine
an entire future of adventures
with the people who show us love

We are the ones who will love you more
than we love ourselves
We will give you our strongest parts
in hopes that we can make things better
We desire to see you become the best you
to make sure that you always feel our love
We crave affection and appreciation
We give a piece of ourselves away every day
sometimes to people who don't deserve it
Our love is easy to take advantage of
and sometimes we don't get back
the love that we give away

When we hurt, we crumble and fall apart
We constantly have to put ourselves back together
We are more fragile than we like to give off
We carry our emotions on our sleeves
Our flaws have the ability to consume us
We aren't afraid to give you the world
but we are afraid to feel unloved
We want you to see what we see
We want you to understand where we're coming from

We are good people with good intentions
We are stronger than we believe
Not everyone can feel the way we feel
We feel too much, too often
We are not hard to love
We are something not everyone knows how to love
But you need to remember that
your worth does not change just because
no one is there to appreciate you, to remind you

You are not any less lovable
You are the most lovable person in the world
You are a light that the world needs
Your kindness is not your weakness
You do not need to change for anyone's acceptance
You do not need to stop giving love
just because you don't get any back
Your heart is the best thing about you

And one day when you least expect it
someone will notice you from across the room
and know exactly how to love you
They will think all of these things are beautiful
They will deserve the love you can give
They will fill the empty space in your heart
But for now, don't stop feeling
We are the ones who feel everything so deeply
We are the ones who can't give up because
We are the ones who will teach the world
how to love

late night, sun rising
guess i haven't slept again
a crisp morning dew

fall's hushed announcement
a gracious breeze heaves warm hues
then settles again

it might rain today
perhaps the perfect soundtrack
deep sleep through my woes

i try to tell you how i feel                                                          
       ­                                                   YOU SAID WHAT TALK LOUDER, I
                                                                ­                         CAN'T HEAR YOU
i said it's hard, i'm just struggling     
                                                          YO­U SAID PULL YOUR HEAD OUT
                                                                ­OF YOUR ***, GET YOUR ****
                                                                ­                                      TOGETHER
i said i'm trying
                                                             YOU SAID I DON'T BELIEVE YOU
i said i don't have motivation to, i feel
hopeless                      
                                                                ­          YOU SAID FIGURE IT OUT
i said you don't listen to me
                                                         YOU SAID STOP MUMBLING WHAT
                                                                ­                                 DID YOU SAY
i said i'm just sad, i hate living
                                                        YOU SAID LIFE'S NOT FAIR, I DON'T
                                                                ­        KNOW HOW TO HELP YOU
i said i don't get it either, but i'm
trying
                                                         ­ YOU SAID OKAY BUT YOUR EYES
                                                    SAID THEY STILL DON'T BELIEVE ME
my heart said i'm sorry
                                                   YOUR NOW EMPTY TEQUILA BOTTLE
                                                              SA­ID THIS DISCUSSION IS OVER
i said good night
                                                           ­                  YOU SAID GOOD NIGHT
my eyes cried i'm worthless and my bed
screamed stay here forever
                                                         YOUR SNORING FROM DOWN THE
                                                      HALL SAID YOU WON'T REMEMBER
                                                                ­                THIS IN THE MORNING
my anxiety captures me and whispers
remember this forever
