Text for You

You’re. My. Everything.
I can’t do anything alone.
Unless you are by my side.
In your comfort I reside.
I tried detaching myself from you. To find myself
and make it better but I only found, while I was
looking for myself, that I found myself in you.

You are the reason that I live. The reason I
function, I’ve known since the start that what we
had was, different.

I can no longer live in this lie.

You are my alibi.
The reason that my cries from inside overflow.
And girl just know. That I mean what I say.
Time. With you is time. Well spent and I could
give you all I have. To spend all my life with you
yes just us two what a fantasy. You’re a
masterpiece.

You are the reason that I live. The reason I
function, I’ve known since the start that what we
had was, different.

And if you. Were. To give me a chance I Promise.
That we would work out. Cause you are worth it.
You are Perfect.

If I loved you, would you love me like love was
meant to be given? Or if you gained my trust
would I lose myself again? If I gave away my selfconsciousness
and invited you in, would you
complete or break the rest of me?

I don’t like giving chances but you are an
exception. With you around everything seems to
go in a new direction. I look at you are
surprisingly see a reflection. I can’t be the only
one feeling the connection. I’m scared, I’m
nervous, my head is banging itself and my heart is
heavy, but I’ve realized you’re what I need to keep
myself steady. Love.
—Arté Warren
