Who is He that can set you free
from pain and captivity
Who is He where depth he does not lack
Substance He created, and in our foolishness He heals the cracks
He died for you and for me
It's Jesus Christ you see

After a year
I could barely remember you
& our memories
and that was heartbreaking

I wanted to say you guys wouldn't last
I know that was terrible of me
But I wanted it more than anything
I had this hope, that somehow, somewhere, it would happen
It hasn't been that long
but I don't want it to get any longer
and I know that it probably will
because you're "made for each other"
but what's the fun in being with someone predictable
you're a foreign country to me, and I want to explore
It's hard to hold in your feelings for someone who is easily expressing theirs.... to someone else

It was petty, really
what we had
but it was more than worth it
and you were more than worth it
and now you're totally gone
I came to that realization
when I noticed the flirty stares
and the nonexistent hellos you used to give
were as gone as you
and I don't know what to do

Self dependence is harder than I thought

I like you
maybe that's too vague
I have an immense infatuation with you
you make me feel so many emotions all at once
My heart & mind freezes up when you talk to me
You make me unable to speak (which normally ends up with some dumb reply)
When you ask how my day was, I wish I could tell you every second of it
when you joke around that nobody likes you, I want to scream, "but I do!"
Your personality is infectious and I just want to be around you 24/7
The most tragic part of all is
you're blind to it
and I don't have the courage to tell you

This one's for the lonely
This one's for the proud
This ones for the sad at heart
This one's for the loud
This ones for the tired
This one's for the poor
This one's for the quiet
This one's for the happy
The ones who can be free
This one's for everyone
Including you and me
You see, we're all the same, dear
We all seek something more
So next time you start judging
Think down deep inside
We aren't that much different
You don't have much to hide
