Did you see the stars
As they shone on you
Vivid like a thousand scars
Inside the darkest blue
Did you see the hero

But that hero was you
Onward for people feel
When music becomes true
In the end you're never gone
Eternally remembered in a song

B
Sometimes I call you my angel.
It just slips out in moments of passion and love.
I know you don't really like it, but B, that's what you are.
If you hadn't entered my life the moment that you did, I would be dead.
I know it - without a doubt.
In February of 2015, you would've been attending the funeral of your temporary chemistry lab partner.
"You came along and you saved me."
You had no idea what I was going through.
I hadn't even told you the worst parts.
But you were there for me for months.
You kept me going.
You were the coffee I should've been drinking.
---
Because of you, I'm finally comfortable in my own skin.
I know who I am and I am because of you.
You grabbed my hand and led me through the darkness of a bad breakup, bouts of depression, and midnight panic attacks.
You had the uncanny ability to know when I was slipping.
My angel, my guardian angel.
---
I've spent the last ten months thanking you
- with my lips, with my hands, with my writings -
but nothing will ever be enough.
I love you endlessly.
I owe you everything.
Hope I did this right

I grew up my freshman year of high school
when the boy I loved fell for a girl who loved girls
when my best friend became my worst enemy
when the nightmares became day dreams

I died my sophomore year of high school
when the pills I loved fell out of my mouth  
when my best friend became my worst enemy
when the day dreams ended the nightmares
I often think about my first two years of high school
So much happened and it hurts to remember
But I knowing where I've grown from makes things easier

"The way that we learn is by facing our sins - ugly as they are -
and seeing what destruction they have caused and
then ridding our lives of them."
