You complete me
You're my other half
You make me happy
You make me smile
You make time stop
Just for a while
You aren't perfect
You are flawed
But I love your imperfections and your quirks
I love your smile and your stupid laugh
I love your nerdiness and sometimes your pride
You are my sunshine
I don't know where life is going to take me,
But I hope it's somewhere beautiful with you
New loves are beautiful...

Maybe I'm just a black hole
Constantly trying to be filled with love, happiness and friendship
But somehow, at 2am,
I find myself just as empty.
Just as unhappy.
And just as alone.

You told me you still loved me today
My heart stopped
Not because I wanted you to
But because I hoped you didn't
You told me you still loved me today
My head spun
Not because I still think about us
But because I hoped you didn't
You told me you still loved me today
I went silent
Not because I didn't know what to say
But because I remember the days I begged for your love and you left me with only disappointment
You told me you still loved me today
I was sad
Not because I haven't moved on
But because I don't want you to chase after someone who doesn't love you
You told me you still loved me today
I paused
For I was in the arms of another.
I wish you never told me you still loved me today

I don't feel as alone with him
I don't feel as sad or depressed
The grasp of the darkness is weakening
I am having a taste of sunlight
And I am blossoming
I see the world in colors now
The grass looks greener
The sky looks bluer
The sun shines brighter
The birds sing sweeter
And my life seems better
Maybe my soul isn't black after all
I'm horrible at titles.

Dear little dove,
It's been a while now since it all ended
Your scars have healed
Your heart is fixed
Time was indeed your friend
Dear little dove,
I warned you not to love again
I warned you love wasn't your friend
But your heart didn't listen
He makes you happy
He makes you smile
He makes time stop
Just for a while
You feel fuzzy and mushy and moist and in love
You try and try but can't make it stop
Dear little dove,
I hope he treats you right
And cradles your heart oh so tight
I hope you never feel alone at night
For you are brave little dove
For choosing to love
New loves are beautiful

Gaze into my eyes
Pull me close
Touch me
Inhale
Kiss me
Inhale
Bite me
Inhale
Hearts pounding
Sweat dripping
Knees trembling
******

Broken, battered, hardened nails
Tears that hold such hidden tales
Of broken promises and injured hearts
Forgiveness can't even fix my scars
I'm sorry, I mean it, you know it's true
I love you
I hope you love me too.
