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.

The Fall

God damn the beauty, and
God damn the addiction that comes with it.

Cold Ground

I bury my face in the cement.
These scratches and bruises have long been coming.
And every scar has your name on it.
