Its something about who you are that draws me in I think.
You are my best friend, you stand on shifting sand
And even then I’ve never seen you to scared to swim.
I’m lost in this strange mix of brokenness and pure bliss,
Stuck in a twist in your open eyes and innocents.
You come alive over and over again and I hope
I can stay here in a place where I can see you,
Look into you and actually see you, its how I know
In the under tow I’m still real and have not drown,
I shudder to think when you’re not around.
But you… there’s something real about you
And I pray to a god who doesn’t exist every **** day
That for the rest of my life I can wake and think
I got to play some kind of role in making you smile
And keeping you safe, helping you grow
and getting to say,
I cant always keep you with me, but I can keep trying.
I can try to stop crying long enough be tough enough to wish you luck
Before you go your way, I hope you smile at least once
Every **** day, the big one that looks like the sun’s rays.
I wish I could just say you took my heart and ran away.
But really no one ever does especially not you.
Truth is you were the only one to ever make me brave enough
To look at all my broken dreams , reassemble bits and pieces
And tell me I was brave. You gave me sanity like air
In a void space, gave me your tears in a dry place,
You lent me your hand when I was bound
let me loose and help me search until I found
something to smile over. Your more than I could have ever known,
the only bandage to stick onto old wounds
and make me better. And I know better than to say goodbye
Or look you in the eyes when I'm about to cry
So see you later dear ,
Keep your heart whole and your head clear.
