I count the days in my head
Until I can see you again.
I wait and wait until
That day comes
Where I can wrap you up in my arms
And I can kiss you
And I can tell you how much
I love you

I take a deep breath
"Here," I say,
You give me a questioning look
"What is it?" You ask,
"It's my key." My voice shakes as I reply,
"I'm ready for you to unlock what is hidden inside, but I warn you; The things you are about to see aren't very pretty and there won't be very much happiness. Just know that while my head is full of painful memories and experiences, you have made my life so much happier; And as you follow up to these last few days, you will notice that there is rarely any sadness left. If you do not like what you see, and you no longer can withstand me, please return the key back to me and leave quietly. I understand that there is a lot to take in and if it is too much for you then that's okay. I love you more than life and more than death; Therefore nothing you can do will ever change the way I feel about you." My voice cracks at the end. Tears are dripping down my face. The key lays on the palm of my hand. I extend my arm out to you and wait to see what you will do next. Will you take the key, or will you turn away? Will you accept me and my mess, or will you be disgusted by me and run away?

Whenever I hear "You Are The Reason" I think of you,
Or whenever I play "Evermore" I think of you,
Or whenever I listen to "Mine" I think of you,
