You know that I love you
you know that I do
and that every single day
I try to be kinder to you.
Some days I struggle
I'm not going to lie
if you're looking for answers
I honestly can't tell you why.
You are everything I need
everything I should want
everything to be grateful for
it's just sometimes I can't.
I trouble myself
to the point of destruction
with stupid ideals
overcome with seduction.
Pointless imaginings
of a better me
I know I should be accepting
and just simply be.
I'm trying, I promise
you must believe me when I say
I'm doing my best
to simply love you, each day.
