There are days when I just want to give up

Go to sleep, wake up in a week
Maybe I just care and worry too much
But I know that through all the pain, I'm growing strong.

I won't give up even though I might struggle.
People will leave, things will change.
Hope will never leave,
and I have faith that one day things will be better.

One day I won't be sad.
One day I won't be mad.
One day I will be glad.

When I see you,
I get those cliche butterflies.
My heart beats faster.

When you smile at me,
my smile gets brighter.

When you talk to me,
I want to catch every little thing you say.

When you hug me,
I feel safe in your arms,
nothing can hurt me in that moment.
My heart bursts.

I want to know everything about you,
small or big.

I think it's very possible that I'm falling for you.

I'm lost.
How do I get back?
I want to find my way back to happiness.
I feel like everyone expects me to be strong for them.
So I am.
For them.
I'm trying at least.
But how do I stay strong for myself
when it feels like no one is there?

Here's To You.

Here's to the people from my past.
Here's to the people who left a mark on my heart.
Here's to the people who made me laugh,
who held my hand,
who have seen me at my best,
who have seen me at my worst,
to the people who loved me no matter what.

I know we don't talk much anymore,
and we never hang out.
We have moved in different directions.
Who knows where we will all end up.
We're making new memories,
new stories,
new friends.

To all those people,
I just wanted to let you know
that you will always be my friend.
Anytime you need something,
let me know.
I miss you.

You.

When I'm around you,
I want to spin in circles.
You make me laugh.
You make me feel stupid.
You make me feel like it's okay to be me.

But I'm scared.
I don't know what to do.
I wish I could read your mind,
I wish you would give me a hint as to how you feel.
We could be friends forever,
and that would be amazing.
I just want to let you know how special you are.

You're up in the air.
But then something comes along.
Someone leaves, a break up, some one dies.
Hope leaves. Confidence leaves.
Hearts get broken.

At first you're lost. You're stuck.
You don't know what to do.

But then one morning you wake up.
Things are clear again.
Something is different now.
You have hope for the future.
You slowly get your confidence back.
Your heart is healed.

Of course you have your rocky days.
Days where you think about the past,
days where you miss the past and want it back.
You get moody.
You hide in a book,
you hide in yourself.

Growing.

It's just another day.
Wake up, do the same thing.
It's time to start something new.
Something needs to change.

It's just another day.
Spinning in circles.
Something needs to change.

It's a new day.
Wake up, feel happy.
Be yourself, be true.
Forget your fears, forget the past.
Something is changing.

It's a new day.
It's your lucky day.
Something is changing.

It's your day.
Wake up, ready to go.
It's your day of opportunity.
Today is the day you're finally free,
the day you finally know what you're doing.
Something has changed.

It's your day.
Take a risk.
Something has changed.
