don't you dare tell me about my pain
when you have never lived inside of my brain

through words,
I heal my wounds
by completely exposing them

she was the only thing that made sense to me on the days where i drank myself to no end
she was always so patience with her hands, ready to catch me whenever i stumbled in this drunken stupor
i know that it was hard for her to watch me **** myself with each sip i brought to my lips
yet she must know that i tried, i tried with all of my might to make everything right
so when she finally left, absolutely nothing made sense
and i cursed my empty bottles because that's all they ever became once i ****** all of the poison from them
empty, shame, left with no blame on anyone else but myself
she said i didn't try hard enough
and i broke all of the bottles as i sat within the remnants of glass
nothing
nothing
made sense

long ago,
do you remember?
when you used to write me love letters

When I say I want
To **** myself, please do not
Take it so lightly

Happiness is all around
Time is turned upside down
Love is everlasting space
When I'm in your warm embrace

Our first kiss, in the back of your truck
The Ferris wheel lights shining bright
You leaned in and risked it all
Whoever knew that I would fall
Fall in love with my best friend
My stomach was full of butterflies
As you gazed into my hazel eyes
Who knew this was the beginning of our life
That we will grow old together until the end of time.

My heart skips a beat when I'm with you
My hearts skips a beat and says I love you...
