falling has never been a graceful act
it has always been a bit messy

over time we learn who to fall for
and we try not to get hurt

but over time I have not stopped
I still fall in love with the same men:

hey you look kind of broken
  well I'm broken too
we can work perfect together
learning about our scars
   and soft spots

but later:

actually don't worry about me
I love you too much
be as happy as possible
I will try to fix your broken parts
and try to fill your broken heart

just please never be sad again
I can't take it when such a soul
is poisoned
with the sadness we both have

I'll be okay
Don't worry about me
I can handle it
I've always handled it
I have to handle it
for you
every time
