You have hurt me once before
But forgiveness is key
However
Others around me do not seem to agree
They do not like you
They do not like you for me
They do not understand
And they do not see
That I just had to forgive you
Because of how much you mean to me
You cause me to smile
Brighter than the sun
You cause me to laugh
Laugh louder than crashing waves
We like the same movies, style and bands
The best part about it
Is when I get to hold your hands
They make me feel safe
Secure and protectedΒ Β 
You make me feel alive
You make me feel free
Yet
They do not like you
They do not like you for me
They do not understand
And they do not see

The world within
