I was left searching
Searching for hope
someone to love me
something to make me love myself
it wasn’t the substances we used on lonely friday nights
it wasn’t the guy that did nothing but whine
it was you and it always has been
Found hope in the way you smile at me with everything in you
found love when you would comfort me on exhausting restless nights
found a reason to smile when i looked at myself and saw the pieces of yourself you’ve embedded in me
