I lost myself
somewhere in the darkness
and I found so much beauty
in the dark and I have found
a lot of horrors in light.

Monsters are real, ghosts are
real too. They live inside us
and  sometimes   they  win.

Love me like my demons do.
Just look inside my heart,
you will cry but know I love
it  when  my  demons  dance
with yours.

Damaged people are dangerous.
they  know  how  to  make you
feel like you're home.

Never  regret  being  a  good
person  to  the  wrong  people.

about you and their behavior               broken, but still have the
says   enough   about   them.                 courage  to  be gentle  to
                                                                   others, then  you deserve
Always: be the best person you             a  love  deeper  than  the
can be - be kind even when you're                              ocean  itself.
tired -be understanding, even when
you're angry - do more than you're
asked and don't ask for anything
in return.                                                                         Jon York   2019
