I have a habit of losing myself in other people
And it's never really proven itself to be a good thing
It has caused a significant amount of pain and loss

But now, I find myself asking,
"What if you meet someone and discover yourself within them?"
A part of you that you have been searching for and missing for a long, long time
So long you don't even remember what it feels like to have that part of you back...
What it feels like to be whole and complete

So maybe a habit of losing yourself in other people isn't such a dire thing
Because once you come across the right person
Whenever or whomever that may be
You begin to grow and discover
Rather than to hurt and lose
More and more
Maybe it's all about finding the other person
Who holds the other part of you within them
Maybe that's where the term "Your other half" comes from

*I think there was always a part of me missing
Until I found it in you
