you see
there were these moments
when I thought to myself
YOU LOVE YOURSELF
BUT YOU SEE THESE DEMONS
ARE EATING YOU ALIVE

then there was the time when I thought
WHO COULD EVER LOVE YOU WHEN
YOU DONT EVEN LIVE YOURSELF

I guess what I realized is
I AM MADE OF FLAWS
BUT I CAN BE FIXED
I CAN BE BETTER
I CAN BE GREAT

with a little belief
I can be
me.

The most honest thing I've ever said was
"I think I need you
more than you need me
and that really scares me"
I don't think you could be any more
vulnerable.

Yet again now that I look back at it
it worked out in my favor
he told me he was not bothered by me
he told me he cared about me
he told me he needed me
in a sense he  made me complete.

When I first met you
I thought
Wow this boy is amazing
As I've gotten to know you
I think
Wow this boy is incredible .

His lives in his skin
(beautiful and honey toned)
Even though it is a battle for him everyday
Life is not easy
I don't think it is for anyone
But, some recognize the struggle.

That's why I fell for you
Your pain did not stop you
As I continue getting to know you
I fall even harder
(the pavement hurts more every time)
Flaws in your eyes are perfections in mine
Yet I am unaware
Am I a flaw or a perfection to you?

LET ME LOVE YOU
let me turn your bruises in goodnight
let me be your roots when a flood occurred
a  flood of my love rushed and uprooted you
LET ME LOVE YOU
LET ME LOVE YOU
let your weaknesses become by shield
and your smiles become my sword
while fighting the impossible
LET ME LOVE YOU
let seconds run down the drain like your tears
they are all gone now
let me turn your arid fields in to a harvest
LET ME LOVE YOU
CAN YOU HEAR ME YET?

your heart it calls it beacons
for someone to warm it up
is hand you a sweater made with love
from my needle pricked fingers just to turn those sad lonesome eyes in to sunsets to turn a frown into a sunshine
there will me no more
suddenly from my lonesome will come a product of care
nothing can stop the barriers that have been put up have come crashing down
the flood of love has rocked your boat and taken you by storm
this can't be it
it was just a needle *****
it has to be harder than this

him
there was this second when I knew I knew everything in my world would be changed. from then on my mind was covered in thoughts about you. it wasn't like that at first we were meant to be friends but look where we ended up. I look out the windows of my car searching for happiness so I could wrap it up and give it to you for Christmas. look where we ended up. but this isn't the end. the end.

— The End —
