    Willing to Figure Out

    When you found me, I was alone and ready to just give in
    I was suffering from a terrible heart break
    I had promised to never let myself fall again
    Cause it only seems to turn out to be painful mistake

    There is no such thing as a fairytale
    And forever only lasts until you find someone new
    Falling in love is just another way to set yourself up to fail
    And there’s no true meaning behind the words “I love you”

    At least, that’s how I felt before you came along
    I just couldn’t handle getting hurt anymore
    Just as I would begin to feel strong
    I’d get crushed and it always hurt worse than before

    But there was one night that took all of that pain away
    The one night that made my whole past disappear
    Nothing in my life has been the same since that day
    Cause ever since then, I’ve had you here

    I found myself explaining everything I had been through
    Then, I listened to a story almost the same as the one I told
    At first, it scared me that I was able to open up to you
    But then, I suddenly realized that my world was no longer cold

    In that single moment, we both knew we were meant to be
    And neither one of us tried to put up a fight
    We had made a perfect beginning for our love story
    And it was all right in front of us, written in black and white

    But like all stories, this one has a twist
    One that nobody could have ever guessed
    Cause I wanted the painful chapters to be the part everyone missed
    And I thought, maybe they wouldn’t be real, if I never confessed

    At first, we were so sure that we were meant to be
    It seemed as if we’d been looking for each other all along
    Everything fit together so perfectly
    I just wish I could understand exactly what went wrong

    How did life pass us by so fast?
    It hasn’t seemed like enough time for us to have been through this much
    Now, we’re just another piece of each other’s past
    How did we not see things falling so far out of touch?

    Will it ever go back to the way it was before?
    We both know scars heal but never disappear
    Will the memories we’ve made be impossible to ignore?
    Are there even still pieces of you that want me here?

    I’ve tried so many times to forget you
    But I’m just not ready to let this go
    I don’t want to have to start over new
    I’m perfectly content with what I already know

    We’ve been together for quite awhile
    Maybe there were a few bumpy parts of the route
    But our love has made it through every tribulation and trial
    And we have never had a problem that we weren’t willing to figure out!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
