Courage




And you call him a coward
You tell me he had a choice

Fool

You have no idea 
What it's like to live through hell

To pull yourself up and out of the shit
Without knowing where you will put your feet next

The only coward I see is you

Wednesday

I am not ready
To say goodbye to the one face
That I have always had to be steady for

I am tired of grief
Clawing away 
At my lungs and throat

I am not ready
To say goodbye to the one face
That I will never be able to see again

How can I say goodbye to you?
You who have made it so easy for me
To find happiness even on my saddest days

I am not good at letting go
And I know that I have always needed you
Far more than you have ever needed me

But

I am not ready
