I thank the universe
Everyday for that one
Summer which changed my life forever
It taught me what love is
What it feels to be alive
What its like to be encompassed
In another persons limbs
Seeing so much love and hurt in another person’s eyes
Shattered something deep in me
I wished I didn’t cry
It taught me that a broken heart
Never truly heals
That human beings are more fragile
Than I could ever possibly think
It taught me how to stand with my head
held up high
Even when a thousands feelings were being
surfaced in my eyes
That summer taught me that you just have to stay strong
It taught me that when you love someone
you have got to be selfless
No matter how much it may hurt
As long as you’re happy, thats all the confirmation that I need
I learned that love is my most powerful weapon
And to LOVE is to forgive
