I was led to believe that in life
whatever you have going for yourself
was meant to be broken
you can build and form the clay
but one day
it could all go to waste
when someone says hey
sorry, didn't see you there
after walking all over
what you spent so long creating
and slowly getting used to.

It took the nerve to finally run away
to take a step back from everything
I had ever known and loved in my life
to crash at the very rock bottom
to think it was over
only to have even bigger rocks
with even sharper edges
keep falling down
to never thinking it would end
to having it suddenly stop.

Since being caught
in the whirlwind of emotions and lies
always trying to believe the best in people
I now know I was right.

The ones I love
My real family
even though we don't share blood
I keep in my life
for a reason.

I will forever be in love with love
simply because.
