Undo me
Take everything I know
And throw it away

Make me new again
I want to stay
In your arms for a while

It's 2 am and I can't get you off my mind
Your words echo in my head
Over and over again
About how much you love me

I don't think I deserve you
Sometimes

I'm a mess
Crude, anxious, controlling
Flawed in all the worst ways

So why
Do you love me?
Do you stay around?

Why do I mean the world to you?

You say you want
Something to remember me by

Just in case


But dear
I think my words are enough
For a lifetime

You can try to mend
The broken pieces of
My mind

You can try to fix
The damage life
Has left behind

Just know that  
I'll be ok  
But it's going to take time

It's crazy to think
That a year ago
I didn't know you existed

People always tell me
That they love my optimism

But what would they say
If they knew it was a mask

To hide my true
Melancholy away

Someday you'll be a story

A memory that survives
By a face in a picture
Or lines in a poem

But for now we live
In what may soon pass
Let's try and make this last

On days when
I am feeling small
And fragile

You make me feel
Like I can
Take on the world
