I sat there wanting so much more But knowing that this was better

I showed him my scars I told him my secrets

I can't take deep breaths I'm tired but don't want to sleep

Last night I cried. In my room alone, I cried.

All I want is to be loved Is that too much to ask?

Be present with me

Black and white That's what I was taught

I say "beautiful" and you think "colour, light and smiles"

Your touch... It's calming...

<3

Happy and sweet That's only what they let you see

How do you put the feeling into words The romance in pain

There was a time before when I worried When I didn't see that red stain every month

A crowd gathers to see the new statue It's still covered

They said it would be nice to finally know where you belong, know your purpose in life

Maybe it'll make me feel lighter, happier, just less depressed

These hands are not mine Yet I make them move

Random faces Of strangers just like you

I married him, and it was the wisest decision I've ever made.

They said but I know
