loving her will never be easy

shes been hurt

time after time

so when she feels

like she may get hurt again

she runs

when your hand touches her skin

and she jumps

know that it isn't because of you

it's because someone else's hands

weren't so kind to her

some days

loving her may seem crazy at times

and she may seem impossible

but I can promise you

no one will love you

as deeply as she will

no one will forgive you

as many times as she will

at the end of the day

she will always have your back

all she wants in return

is for someone to believe in her

the way she believes in everyone else
