You may see something in me
That's captivated your heart,
But don't attempt to mold me
Into something you're desiring I'm not
I don't long for a sculptor
Instead, a friend I can trust
I'm complete on my own
And believe in Love unrushed
I'm unabashedly me
Proud of the stories I've lived
For I molded myself through heartache and laughter
And the love I continually give
I won't judge your honesty
I'm magnetized by authenticity
Our pasts shape our present
Autobiographies lacking simplicity
So, tell me your story
I'll stay awake with the stars
Share what has shaped your heart
Individual pasts may form a shared future that's ours
