You were no sunshine
in a golden hour,
but you did blind me
from every golden thing

I was prepared for the classic
shoulder devil and angel
pulling me in different directions,
but nobody prepared me for
a guardian angel act from a devious devil,
pulling me into something I didn't sign up for.

A little love
goes a long way

Sometimes I feel like you
seem to forget
that we're on the same team,

and where love lies,
egos die.

Instead of know yourself,
Better yourself

I promise myself peace and serenity,
yet I strike at the first glance of a storm,

I think I know who I am,
but then doubt enters my heart
at the first introduction of confusion,

I prepare myself for the worst,
forgetting that good even exists,
like an infant,
believing that the sun has really disappeared
when it's just hiding behind a cloud
