Sometimes a certain sadness
comes along
and you might not know
where it is that you belong
but your heart is home
and I want you to know
you are never alone.
Sometimes others say
hurtful things
that make you feel
like your face is twisted
and they suffocate your heart
and some days it seems
like everything is slowly
falling apart.
Sometimes your body aches
and you feel like lead
and it's easier to pull your covers
all the way over your head
and pray that you never
wake up
but it's very important
that you do.
So if you don't feel beautiful
when you open your eyes
I hope this reminds you
that I think you are.
Just try to remember this too
