How do you see someone
Honestly and truly,
Seeing all their flaws
Without loving them entirely?

How do you not see
Yourself in sleep
And see them be
Nothing but the most beautiful
You've ever seen?

How do you paint
Their jawline
Their eyes
Their neck
Without worshiping their body in sleep?
How are you so blind
And yet you can see?

Tell me.
How did you do it?
How did go through with it?
How did you stop imagining their kiss
On your lips
Their intoxicating smell
Bruises you'd leave on their neck?

How did you do it?
'Cause I can't
I can't bear it
I can't destroy the possibilities
And go back
To considering them meaningless.
I have to try.
I have to try.

Even if nothing goes right,
I'll still be there
I'll still bear my cross
And lay it on the ground for them
Just to cross a gap
I'll still be there to mend
Everything they've broken
I'll still be there to see
What they have done to me.

Seriously don't know what this was XD
Found it in my notes the other day and finished it. Don't judge it too hard.
