you hurt so so bad
take it slow
you don't deserve your scars
they don't deserve these tears
bide your time
grow strong
I will be right there I will hold your hand
and you can tell them the truth til it hurts
but don't expect
everything to be okay,
'cause
as long as love lasts
it doesn't last forever
but I should have believed when you told me
what an angel he is,
and in his eyes I saw halos
misplaced in some quest for righteousness
and he loves you
not like you want him to
but then
not like he wants to either
patience is your strong suit
not mine
use it. when the time is right,
when the love is ripe,
take him into your arms again.
