Don’t tell me you miss me when I die
Tell me you miss me now
before these angel wings fly into the sky
Send me roses I can smell now
Give me hugs I can feel today
Call me now
so I can hear the voices
meant to make me smile

If you loved once
you can always learn to love again
go through the growing pains again
but smart love is not falling victim to the same person who hurt you again and again

Smart love is knowing when to lose
just so you can love again

When she hugged me
she took my soul with her
Soulless I am

A skeleton with a beating heart
Senseless I am

Emotions with no one to love
Loveless I am

A smile with no confidence
Insecure I am

Pain is silence covered in beauty
to comfort the lonely.

Love is not perfect
But it is worth it

Love is not always beautiful
But it will come to you, if it was meant for you
It will make you reflect on the inner you

Love is not always easy
But it will hold you gently
kiss you softly
touch you deeply
move you emotionally

For me it never had a starting point or an ending point

I just knew it had to be given
You were the chosen

I showed it by never forgetting where we were going

Goals set, in midnight conversations, early morning calls, late night walks

Never asked you to be loyal
Always talked about keeping it real
It’s like the scene never ended and you kept the reel
Never needed lights to show the actions
No amount of cameras could capture the excellence of your presence
You never left even when you were given the evidence

To you my loyalty has no expiration
Your heart is it’s intended destination

Be the hope you hope to bring into the world
Love strong love hard
Smile long
Show others what it means to hold on to hope
Trust the universe to pick up your energy
Cast out your enemies
Take out your insecurities
Feed your courage and bravery
Be the hope you hope to see in the world
