I Said Yes
When I was asked to care for you I didn't think I'd be able to I had a lot going on But I still couldn't say no
When I was asked to care for you I didn't think I'd be able to I had a lot going on But I still couldn't say no
Mistakes are inevitable You can’t avoid or escape them They are the foundation of your growth You are a flower, they are your stem
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
You think there’s so much wrong with you That no one could possibly accept the real you So you bury it all deep down below Where no one will ever be able to go But despite everything “wrong”, you can still sparkle Because you see, all of this is completely normal
Walking everywhere with a rain cloud overhead Struggling everyday just to get out of bed
Injury invisible to others hindering your ability to be who you were
(For Denali)
After every sigh, between every kiss I want you to always remember this The love in my eyes is all for you It’s real and it’s honest and it’s true
(For Denali, my honey bee)
On a night like any other filled with chaos, anxiety and fear I heard your beautiful voice and those stormy skies began to clear
Cast aside again and again and again and every single time you felt like nothing
Everything was beautiful Bright, happy, colorful Full of sparkling, magical wonder I started to smile again Thought that maybe I could fit in And the joy would chase away the thunder Gone were the storms I’d known for so long And I believed with my whole being that I could belong
