Me
The giant stands up
with a shake of the hand
makes you unterstand
he could crush
every bit of your land
to his feet-
takes a big step
leaves every house whole
and walks off
Your name melts upon my tongue,

Lips meeting mine softly,


And eyelashes brush my cheek as 

Deep amber pools are hidden from light;


Seashell skin running through air,

Tracing spirals against mine,

Moments falling as wind throws sand,

Bright hair dancing fractals across sky —


I've never known a blue this deep,

Richer than silent I-love-yous

Thrown to the sea.
Maybe I should stop
While I'm ahead
Throw in the towel
And make my bed


After everything
That we've been through
I cant imagine life
Without you



I can't say goodbye
I was born to be
More than just
An ordinary guy
And its really no surprise
No I can't imagine why
I don't want to live
An ordinary life

I was doing fine
Out On my own
Then I found you there
And took you home


After everything
That we've been through
I cant imagine life
Without you


I can't say goodbye
I was born to be
More than just
An ordinary guy
And its really no surprise
No I can't imagine why
I don't want to live
An ordinary life
I never quite got to say thank you.
Thank you for saving me when I couldn’t save myself.
Thank you for making me feel loved when I thought it was impossible.
Thank you for making me feel at home in your presence when I felt so out of place and lost everywhere else.
I owe you my life - literally.
maybe we aren't fundamentally weak
but we just have a small fraction of a moment when we're weak
and in that moment, we lay in bed too sad to move a limb or we simply do not want to see the world beyond our front door
this is ok
we are not weak to the core we are weak in the moment
we are not fundamentally weak we are fundamentally human
if insecurity was a religion people would follow nothing else
if self doubt was a political party people would vote for no one else
if depression was a country people would feel at home nowhere else
this is us by default - we didn't choose this
