your hands touch my body
and play me
like the beautiful song
with rhythm
and sweet words
i was always meant to be

in a world that moves so fast
sometimes we need to slow down

I pushed you too far
You pushed for me
But you wouldn’t let me go down that path any longer
I thought you failed me
You only did it out of love
I got sick
You were unable to fight it off
You weren't weak
You didn’t have another choice
You fainted
Hands that saw your true beauty that I couldn’t see caught you.
Dad caught you.
You became frail
You became pale
Doctors saw illness
Needles pricked in you
Tests were taken

But I saw beauty
That still needed “more” progress

I will not let myself go down that path again

Thank you
You taught me love
You taught me acceptance
You taught me that eating is a form of self respect
I want to grow with you

I love you

I find you-
in everything i see

Two hearts broke tonight.
Yours,

But, you shattered
Mine.

Because of You-
I belong among the wild flowers
