LOVE ME OR HATE ME, i'm still on your mind.

i cannot believe
that it has taken me THIS long
to fully understand
the complexities and vulnerabilities
in human relationships
you know
for the longest of times
things were always so clear to me
in my head
everything was black and white to me
right and wrong was clearly defined
there were no grey areas
i guess that was kind of why i was
so judgemental in the past too
but lately, everything (to me at least)
is GREY
there is no more black and white
and for a while i thought it was me
maybe i lost my way
maybe i changed
maybe i'm not the same person
i used to be
the truth is that i'm finally seeing
that not everything is as clear cut
as i used to think it was
and though i think it was much easier
for me to make decisions
and form opinions of people
when i was still seeing everything in black and white
in a way i am grateful for
finally truly being able
to put myself in someone else's shoes
and see things from their point of view
i think it has made me less of an
angry person
and it has made me stop looking
for people to blame
when things go wrong
because
most of the time
it really isnt anyone's fault
we all do the best we can do
and thats all anyone can ever expect
from us
right?

Learning To Breathe"

Hello, good morning, how you do?
What makes your rising sun so new?
I could use a fresh beginning too
All of my regrets are nothing new
So this is the way that I say I need You
This is the way that I'm

Learning to breathe
I'm learning to crawl
I'm finding that You and You alone can break my fall
I'm living again, awake and alive
I'm dying to breathe in these abundant skies

Hello, good morning, how you been?
Yesterday left my head kicked in
I never, never thought that
I would fall like that
Never knew that I could hurt this bad

So this is the way I say I need You
This is the way that I say I love You
This is the way that I say I'm Yours
This is the way, this is the way

i'm tired of running away from you
i just want to be where you are
i know i cant do this without you

the tragic romance
