The truth is
things have changed,
we've changed
We're not the same people we were 3 years ago
no matter how hard we try
and I don't think that's our fault
It happens,
life happens,
and things change for a reason,
because if they're not changing,
we're not growing
and maybe that's the problem
we're growing
out of each other,
not into the perfect life
we envisioned years ago,
but into new things
that are better handled alone
But somehow,
after all the change,
you're still the only one who can
fulfill my loneliness
my sadness
the empty space in my heart
And that's why it's so hard for me
because without you,
I am incomplete

I don't want to hear
how nice my hair looks
how pretty my eyes are
or how flattering my top is
Tell me how I made you smile today
How I made you think
How I made you feel
Those are the only words I want to hear
Those are the only words that matter

I need you to know
that every time you laugh
the sun starts to shine
a little bit brighter

I need you to know
that every time you cry
another flower
starts to bloom

I need you to know
that every time you smile
the stars in the sky
start to multiply

I need you to know
that every time you feel like giving up
there’s someone out there
waiting to see you succeed
and love you with open arms

I need you to know
that you are more than any doubt, any pain, any worry
you are more than just one moment
you are more than just the past
you are more than just today

I need you to know
that your future is filled
with endless possibilities
for your dreams
and the only person
who needs to be happy with it
is you

I need you to know
that in the end
you are worth it all
