I know you’ve been hurt,
you’ve cried endless tears,
and you’ve been broken in ways that you can’t even explain.
You’ve always wiped away the anguish, found your smile and laughed again somehow.
Your ability to smile through the tears makes you that much more beautiful.
You’ve always found a way to rise from the ashes of a broken heart.
Try as they might, they could never clip your wings.
Those tears that rolled down your ivory cheeks..they weren’t for you, were they?
You wept for them, as you knew they were lost more than you ever have been.
They didn’t deserve you on their best day and you didn’t deserve that on your worst....
