You are always second guessing yourself, you are full of things that are unfinished and unsent and I wonder how many times love has only seen the world from behind your teeth because you never found courage to say it. I want to know the secrets your backspace holds because sometimes I think the reason you’re misunderstood is just because the things you feel so clearly only make it to the tip of your tongue before you swallow them back down . I would be happy to hold the words for you if they're too heavy or sharp I would be happy to carry the world for you if ever you drown or can't find the beauty in oblivion or in yourself don't forget I will always
