there are just times
when waking up
gets very hard
when getting up on your bed
seems like it would take
all your energy
and willpower to do
sometimes you won't feel
the need to eat
even if you haven't eaten
since the night before
when your eyes land to the windows
there will be times
where you'll find the sunrise
not so pretty
or you'll find the stars
not appealing
there will be a period
where nothing makes you smile
and everything is just
off
but let me assure you
when things get hard
i'll help you
when you're struggling
i'll struggle with you
when you're in your downfall
i'll stay with you
i'll wake you up
on those mornings you can't
i'll help you get back up again
whether in that bed
or in the feeling you feel trapped onto
i'll be your sunrise
for the days not bright enough
or your moon
for the nights you wished to forget
even if you just don't want to talk
we'll enjoy the silence together
i'll do anything
because i've waited
for someone like you
for so long
i'm willing to bet
everything i have
just to keep you here
just to keep you near
because you,
you're all i asked for.

whenever there's nothing to see
you'll be my eyes
telling me not to look in the dark parts
but rather focus on the colorful ones

whenever it is dark
you'll be my light in the way
guiding me as i mindlessly walk
into the pitch black of nothingness

whenever i feel blue
you'll be the waves
that will washed me away
through the shore of intrusive thoughts

whenever i tell myself i'm unworthy
you never ceased to make me feel
like i'm the luckiest gal on earth
just with you, being you

whenever i'm lost
i would always come back to you
because when you wrap your arms around me

i feel like i'm home.

ever wonder why i'm so into you?
there are just so many things
i love about you

like the way you prounounce "grafton street"
or the way you look at me funny
when i say something weird

i love the way your lips curl up
as your eyes lit up
when you see something of your interest

how you can't seem to win against me
in our on-the-spot staring contest
always the first one to look away, blushing and embarassed

but besides those little things,
i specifically love
when you radiate happiness

no matter the reason behind,
even if it's not because of me,
even if it's for other people,

when you smile,
the world smiles back

and i think that's lovely.

surprised you're still here
despite my state
a sunshine in the morning,
a monster at night

i've come to love the darkness,
for it always surrounds me
then you came along,
your brightness reflecting through the windows

you looked, you saw,
how damaged i am
my bruises, my scars,
both fresh and old

you start to approach me
a knock on the door can be heard
"who's there?", i answered
"it's your past", it answered back

you continued to walk
did you not hear that?
you hurt my eyes,
i hate how bright you are

you kneeled in front me
and held out your hand
as i stare deeply into you,
i saw myself

my eyes brightened

..i held your hand

under the streetlights
as we wander by the pavement
i saw the moon in your eyes
as your smile gleamed

yellow stars scattered
as we look up
it twinkled in the sky
a yellow tint against everything

i turned my head
and saw you admiring
the beauty up above
"it's beautiful", you said.

my eyes twinkled.
"you are beautiful."
