Do you ever get sad?
Does your heart ever bleed?
Do you ever feel the weight crushing you in?
Do you ever cry, wondering if it is always going to be this way?
Sometimes I wonder if you do.
I see you post cute pictures on instagram,
Showing off smiling faces and perfect bodies,
I see the number of likes on your Facebook posts and the retweets for your tweets
And I wonder If you ever feel like I do.
It is amazing to know
That our souls are made
From the same material;
To see, and be seen.
To love and be loved,
I want to know who you are
Even if you are falling apart.
It is not enough to say
That you are okay.
I need your hurt
I need your pain
It’s not Love any other way.
So, when the laughter and the dreams
And the memories in-between
Are washed away in a steady stream.
When you are on your hands and knees,
Trying to gather all your broken dreams.
I am with you
‘Till your heart finds a home
I won’t let you feel alone
