Take me back to yester year,
Before all the boys and lies.
Back to when it was okay to be me
And I didn't have to wear this disguise.
My world has become so confusing,
Painful and unclear.
Hurt has replaced happiness.
Smiles have been replaced by tears.
So many times I've been afraid to move forward.
Afraid of what I'll find.
I have lost all control.
All I want is a chance to rewind.
But now someone has come in to my life,
Who I love and has brought me peace.
He centers my world, makes everything right,
And sets my pain at ease.
I anxiously go through my day
Just so I can have a moment with him.
He's the one I'm here for, the one I depend on.
My very closest friend.
When I'm upset and my eyes fill with tears,
He knows just what to say.
Except his words are soft and silent,
And he speaks them in his own way.
He leans in to kiss me
And tells me through his eyes,
That even though this won't fix whatever happened,
Everything will be alright.
I know it doesn't seem like much.
A simple kiss in time of need.
But honestly it makes a huge difference,
And it's all I'll ever need.
