Me.
I had to write this - this piece that only makes sense to those who
Maybe knew me - loved me and even disliked my ways
I lost more love than you can imagine why do you think my eyes always look in pain
I now have a new love
One that disappears but for great reason
It's hard to stay with someone who constantly changes like the seasons
Will they smile tomorrow?
Or be cold the next day?
Will they shine so bright one moment?
Or blow everything we've ever had away?
I've apologize enough to plant a field of weeping willows
It seems my tears soak more than my dreams into my pillow
Finally, a time to heal and this time do it right
Free a heart that's been imprisoned in me my whole entire life
Part of this is for the one that I love more than she could ever know
The one that changed my whole life
And refused to let me go.
For my family whose been through the battle yet, never raise a white flag
To my friends who were never sure who'd they get, but always seemed to come back
To my father. Sure, I love you...but only because we are nothing alike
For the moment I've been waiting for
I'll say out loud - BLAND YOU DONT HAVE TO ALWAYS BE RIGHT!
Quite down and you'll hear so much more than you can imagine
Open you eyes and you can finally reach for all you desire and go grab it
Don't disappoint- all the people who ever had your back
Because time will tell truly if you've taken the time to pay em back
Show her you mean it...become the man she fell in love with - March 17th with that first kiss
Only get few shots at redoing life so promise me you won't miss
Aim for the stars but shoot for the moon
This is your time...your moment. I promise it's all gunna make sense soon.
The day that you realized you can become the change you've always seemed to teach
Don't do it for her - your family nor your friends
Do it for you...and I promise what you deserve will all finally be reached
I know I've said it enough but I thank you and apologize to those who've dealt with me.
I've finally reached that moment - the one she, they and all will be proud of
The moment I finally become me.

And I wish I could make it easy...

Easy to love me.

I thanks those who never gave up and walked away
And I'll continue to rewards those who will always stay.

With me.
This is my final peace. Not my best but speaking with the heart
