i hope that someday you find your peace
and you find your forever
even if it's not with me
i'd rather have a little of you
than none at all

sometimes i think about what we used to be
i want to love you like that again
but you’d have to let me

there’s so many things i wish i could tell you
things i wish i could say to you
things i wish you knew

it’s a terrible thing
to be filled with so much love
desperate for someone to pour it into

i want to love someone
i want to love someone so gently that they think of me at every soft breeze
i want to love someone with the patience they so badly need
i want to love someone in a way that both of us will look back at and smile
i want to love someone with the kindness that i believe everyone deserves
i want to love someone with the same amount of love in their heart as mine
i want to love someone in the exact way i want to be loved
i want to love someone
someone like you.

we all heal in the way we need
but always remember
those who choose not to heal
are not worth the risk to your own healing

there's a sort of peace in the ending
a warmth
a comfort
a realization

nothing truly lasts forever
nothing is forever
but after time
that isn't so scary

the end isn't a death sentence
the pain doesn't last forever
you will survive outside of their world
you will thrive

but take your time
to love
to live
to breathe

it won't feel like this forever
nothing hurts forever.
