"a beautiful thing never gives so much pain as does failing to hear and see it."
so much
freedom gave us so much
priorities, necessity
and responsibility.
infatuation gave us so much
false lovers, true love
and heartbreak.
time gave us so much
on time, in time
and time for us.
lust gave us so much
stolen kisses, chocolate lips
and first mistakes.
but then, mistakes gave me so much
get up, look pretty
and just let go.
anger gave us so much
red eyes, swollen lips
and making up.
fear gave us so much
holding hands, letting go
and running ahead, never looking back.
the dark gave us so much
starry skies in july
and hidden tears.
youth gave us so much
sweet, sweet love
and the cold harsh truth.
life gave me so much
a chance to pick myself up
and a chance to exist
yet i gave up too much
and lost myself,
waiting for tomorrow to find me again.
