You

You

One word

One syllable

It can be said in different ways

That mean different things

But there is only one way that I want to use it

I want to use it in a way that says,

"You are the reason that I'm still alive."

I wish for it to scream,

"I'm never letting you go!"

Because you are the reason for my strength

You are the reason of

Why

I want to live longer

You are the other half of my spirit

Despite us being thousands of miles apart

I feel like it's you who embraces me in a hug everytime I sit alone, drowning in tears

You are the soul that gets me pumped to get up in the morning

Because you are the only one that I want to talk to

You are special

Because you are you

I don't want to disappoint

Or upset you

Especially, if I let my pain show

I never want to show that I'm weak

That's why

When I'm waist deep in a sea of tears

And my wrist is longing for scars

I think of you

I think of you

Just so my pain will go away

I think of you

So I know that you're still alive

So I can remind myself that I'll be okay

Because without you

There is no life on earth

There is no reason for me to live

Without you

The sun and the moon would

Disappear

Along with the stars

You are the one thing that makes the world

My world

Go 'round

Yes, you have some rough edges

But I could care less

Because I love you

In

Every

Single

Way

And no one

Not even God

Could change that
