Hand Grenade

A little part of my world blew up today
Which part?
The part you were in.

Your Mistake

It was your mistake
You didn't know
You couldn't see
I'm not garden variety
I'm a wild flower.

Just Saying

 

If you make me feel bad

If you make me feel like you don’t care

Or that you don’t want me

Or that you don’t love me

That you’re not devoted to me

If you don’t pick me – every single time

Or if you show me that you don’t particularly give a fuck

I will show you how very much more I don’t give a fuck back.

Soul Mate

I love your spirit
Your energy
Your Joy
I love that you're vulnerable and open
And I love that when you love
You jump all the way in
I love that you see me
The perfect
The broken
And that you see it all as wonderful
You are my mirror
What I see in you
You see in me.

To Find Treasure

Darling

I know all those pretty things will catch your eye

And that’s okay

But pay attention to the one who affects your heart

This is the one you should be reaching for

This is the one you should put first

This is the one you should love.

Another Idiot

You threw away something good

Because you thought there was something better

Now you see the good thing you had

Was more than good enough

And what you thought was better

Never even came close to good

You had to learn the hard way

That you didn’t know how much you loved me

Until you watched me love someone else

And now

Now it’s just too late.

I Know

 

You know how they say

You can’t break a heart

That’s already broken

Well, it’s not true.

Home

 

I’ve heard it said

You don’t know somebody

Until you know what they want

Well I want to go home

The only problem is
I don’t know where home is anymore.

Used To Be

 

At night

Alone in the dark

I knew who I was

Who I had once been

I know I’d gotten lost –

Was still lost –

But if I lay very still and very quiet

I could feel the strength of the girl I used to be

And in those moments

I could feel her coming back for me.
