Beat

I wish you didn't fear death the way that I fear life.

Dear Friend,

I hear you.
I see you.
I can find you behind the masks you wear.
I wish you weren't so scared to let me in.
I wish you'd let me hold you close, hold you tight.
I swear I knew you before I met you.
I promise I won't break your heart, and
I promise to pray for you every day that you're away.
I'm not mad at you, and
I'm not upset.
I know you acted out of fear, and
I know you. . .I know you. . .I know you.

And I think it scares you that someone knows you.
But you don't have to be afraid because you are
beautiful, lovely, and sweetly broken.

I love you.

Soul

Break.
Fall apart.
Come undone.

It's the only way you'll get where you need to be. . .

Child

It's okay to fall.
It's okay to fall.
It's okay to fall.

Because I will catch you.

-IA

You're eating more,
and I'm eating less.
If this situation gets any worse, we just might have to confess.
