Why*  would you smile at strangers on the street
Why not,  it won't cost you a dime

Why  would you eat lunch at an affable diner by yourself
Why not,  you deserve a piece of solitude sometimes

Why  would you go stargazing and binge eating with friends on a Friday night
Why not,  life is short; Enjoy while you can

Why  would you stay in and watch 500 Days of Summer over again
Why not,  you need a good cry once in a while

Why  would you rather be with the one you love than with the one who loves you
Why not,  you define your own happiness

Why  would you write sonnets and love letters but never let him read them
Why not,  okay why not?

I sink
I fall
I stumble
He reaches for my hand,
Pulls me out of the devil's claws

I cheat
I steal
I lie
He listens to my false reasons,
Forgives more than a million times

I swear
I blame
I curse
Sure He is stabbed and hurt
Yet He willingly embraces all flaws and dirt

I cry
"I give up"
"I give in"
He lifts me up, carries me home to a place I've never seen


God's  Not  Dead
He's  surely  *alive

Let's never talk again,
because if we do
we'll both fall apart
in each others arms
and when that happens,
we can never be held again.
