It's kind of amazing
The level of changing I see in myself
I've learned so much in so little time that it's a surprise that I'm not out of my mind
I'm a different man than who I used to be
A better man
A stronger man
But one of the more recent revisions to my character is this
I've learned to love loving someone who doesn't know it yet
I've learned to love loving people just because it's the right thing to do
I've learned that love doesn't always have to have a dark side nobody ever told you about
I've learned that love isn't always what it seems it should be
Love is actually imperfect by nature
Because on paper there's always a reason why
But in your mind it's inapplicable to the reasoning's of the heart
For who are you to argue
You see the good in the bad and good in the great and the amazing in the mediocre
For they're what you wish you could be and a thousand times more
For you can't even fathom what would be in store for you both if you pursued this line of thought
And maybe you'll get over this
Maybe you won't
What does it matter where they came from
Or what they've done
They're here now and they're not gonna look back and neither should you
Renew yourself in the image of the person you know you always want to be
Because I believe the very need for being that person means you already are
You just need to step into the shoes
