I don't know you yet
But I hope I will soon

I haven't told you yet
But I hope you will listen

I haven't opened up to you yet
But I hope you let me in

I haven't shown you my care yet
But I hope you'll have yours to share

I haven't taken a chance in a while
But I hope we will make you smile

l.v.s

You play me the same notes
And repeat your words

You'd think I'd learn by now but
I always fall for the verse

Again and again on loop
Leave me outside feeling hurt

Help me im stuck in this
I tell my mind just stop

We're not a broken record
Get out of my head...

l.v.s and friends

I can't trust
A single word
You spit out
When it's
Someone
Else's
Fingers
Drawing
The words
Out from
Your
Mouth

l.v.s

Sometimes I wonder
If you chose
To break me

Did it make you
Feel free?
Did it distract you
From your own mind?

Because mine?
It skips moments
Replays the same scenes
And repeats fear and doubt
Over and over

When I'm reminded
Of my minds mayhem
It's because
Something
Or someone
Reminded me
Of you.

l.v.s

We've all
Got
Bright bits

It's just hard
To see
With blurry
Eyes.

l.v.s

If you want to
Come closer
If you want
Me to
Let you in
I need you to
Understand

Time must be taken
Care must be given

I can not
Rush
There's no
Short cuts
This is
A process
This is a
Delicate
Thing

Please,
Try to
Understand.

l.v.s

Even in the moments
Where life is settled
I can't help but
Be prepared to
Run for the door

It tends to be when
I'm most comfortable
And content
That things begin
To crack
And crumble
At the seams.

l.v.s
