A Thought For You

"There is no future. There is no past. Thank God this moment's not our last. There's only us. There's only this. Forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other road. No other way. No day but today. There's only now. There's only here. Give into love, or live in fear. No other path. No other way. No day but today..." -Rent

There's a million words I want to say
brimming the edge of my mind.
I love you.
I will keep on loving you.
And I will never ever hurt you.
We've been so far in life, separately.
Our hearts grew in so many different ways
but we're not so different.
Not at all.
And at the times when you're nervous
I can see it in your eyes.
Just a small, fleeting glance of it
And I want to tell you
everything will be alright.
I can forgive. I always can just...
try not to break this heart. Mkay?
It's been broken so many times.
One more break might crush it forever.
I can't handle that.
But I can handle you.
I can handle your past because
it's not. who. you. are.
Don't forget that, okay?
You're stronger because of it.
And sometimes, you talk
so poorly of yourself
that I just want to hug you
and look you in the eyes
and say "You're the greatest thing
that's ever happened to my life.
And I am sure with all my heart
that you're amazing."
Yeah, and one day too
you will see it yourself.
You will believe that.
It's true.
But until then I promise
I have every intention
to love you on your bad days and good days
through anger, and sadness, and love,
and to keep growing and falling
faster and faster
while we build a near future
together.
