I once loved a girl who I thought was perfect.
I quickly found she was far from,
So very broken, she begged me to fix her
But every time my hands went to pick up the pieces she would take a hammer to herself, covering me with glass shards that sliced at my heart.

I once loved a girl who was what I believed to be everything I ever wanted.
In the end she didn't believe she was good enough
Her passion burned bright, so bright it burned me and left me singed on the ground while she grew wings and flew away.

You found me on the ground. You like to say I found you, but I as I wiped at the grit in my eye,
There you were.
The girl with peroxide, tweezers and
Band aids in one hand.
Water and aloe settled in the other.
You leaned down and wiped at the dirt on my cheek and held out your hand whispering
here, come with me.
I once fell in love with a girl who wasn't perfect.
But.
She was exactly what I needed.
