adventures

i would like to go on adventures with you
rub sunscreen on my bare shoulders
get lost on back roads
enjoy the scenery so much we forget to ask for directions
and have our picnic in the backseat of the car


you'll change the radio to classic hip hop
i'll bob my head and pretend to know the words


i would like to go on adventures with you
give my taste buds something new to think about
laugh so hard i spill water down my shirt
split dessert
and fight over the bill


you'll make life seem vibrant, genuine, and true
i'll realize every day is an adventure with you

dear friend

he's not your everything for forever, he wasn't for you to have

he was the first to love you deeply, that doesn't mean he'll be the last

And you're broken and you're hurting so at one am you say his name 

but it doesn't have to be a tragedy that things won't be the same

sometimes good things grow apart but they're still. growing. 

and growing pains hurt so much but isn't that just showing

that you are still alive. 

(and life will still be worth living)

even storms make flowers grow

so please start building

a sanctuary inside, because it's okay to be alone 

and one day you'll surely find, a new hand to hold

love the memories, love what he gave you

but love yourself more, 

everyday and painful night

you're the one worth fighting for
