Stop me if you've heard this one before

Stop me if you’ve heard this before,

girl

meets boy

learns to love.

 

You never learn to love

yourself

stop me if you’ve heard that one too.

 

I can’t live without a lot of things,

technically.

I know you’ve heard that one.

 

But truly,

I would die without him I think.

Yeah, you’ve definitely heard this one.

 

Soulmates really are a thing,

but,

it doesn’t hit you until you’re drenched in tears.

It’s the third time this week,

you know what I mean.

 

Don’t let things you love go

never mind that

they will come back

Leaving never does much good

stop me if I’m wrong

 

I never thought much about the universe

until I started to believe that maybe people could be made from the same exact star

Someone may have said that one before

who knows

 

All I know is

places and smells have more life to them

when you’re around,

I feel a lot lighter too

you’ve made it this far

might as well keep going.

 

anxiety

fills

me slowly

THEN FAST.

The thought of life

without you,

how could I?

 

You give me air to breathe,

and you give me room to cry,

with laughs to swallow.

So many days I repeat myself,

I love you,

I can’t

live

with

out

you

 

Who’s to say if you’re real or not,

it wouldn’t surprise me if this were a dream.

I know you feel me, right?

 

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before,

but out of all the people in the world,

I only need one.

And

if you ask me,

that’s just enough.
