nothing can replace the love that you have for yourself
so if you cannot find a part of yourself that you are truly in love with
build the love
with your own two hands
until you can truly say that you are in love with yourself
i believe in you
im glad ive finally found someone
whom i wont need to fake a smile around
pure genuine happiness radiates between us
together
we watch the sun depart
down into the earth

together
we watch the moon rise
into the deep black sky
each morning when she brushes her makeup on her face
she feels like picasso painting a masterpiece
she is a beautiful piece of artwork
i wish i could be unaffected by the scars of my past
but time can heal no wound of mine
the marks will last a lifetime
i kept pouring myself
into your palms
but you let me leak through your fingers
and drip onto the cold hard ground
i gave you everything i had
i scrub and i scrub and i scrub
but nothing can erase the fingerprints you have left on me
because they are imprinted in my memories
and i can still picture where your fingers have been
