I Promise
(For Denali, My Love)
I promise to be there for good times and bad Whether you’re smiling and happy or crying and sad
(For Denali, My Love)
I promise to be there for good times and bad Whether you’re smiling and happy or crying and sad
There will always be people who want you to be something different Something that you are not Something that you don’t want to be
One Year Ago
I found myself at my lowest point Barely keeping my head above water My brain screaming to give up But I held my head up long enough to take out my tools and fix it
Not long ago You were always alone And no matter how you tried Nothing seemed to change that
(For Lex, My Darling)
How could anyone hate you?
You stand up for those you love with a ferocity like no other You love with your whole heart with such passion that even I can tell
People have always wanted you to be exactly one certain way They didn’t want you to change day after day after day
(For Helana)
With you, the world is less dark Less troubling, less dreary Your smile brings out the sun And ends a journey so weary
This label I was handed left me alone and stranded because it doesn’t fit the real me this isn’t what I want to be
(For Lex and Rowan, my lovely beans)
My world exploded leaving me empty inside But you were there for me Always by my side
When you were young you were handed a sign and they told you to hold it That it was who you were
