Why can’t I forget you?

I’ve met so many other people with that look in their eyes. But no one ignites a fire in mine like you do. Like you did.

People say they have a connection. But they don’t know ****. Have you ever wanted to rip someone’s skin off so you could climb inside? Just so you could feel closer to them? Like it was the only thing left to do.

It was short lived but I can still feel you. I’ve seen the world but the feeling with you is the thing that pushed me to do more. I saw myself in you. Like a mirror to my past.
You made me see the beauty in myself I’d never seen before. People said it was there but you made me the man I am. You made me become a man. Healing my own pain by healing yours.

You’re the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. I helped you see that. You helped me see me. Undoing your reluctance was like undoing my own.

Translating songs for you lying in your bed and watching you hear them for the first time was like watching myself hear them for the first time. Really.

I don’t see people anymore I see souls. Good and bad. It’s like seeing myself through you took the veil off the world and made everything so clear.
I was always different, I saw the world. You see the world. It did to you what it did to me. I healed in you what you healed in me.

People say they’d do anything for someone they love but they wouldn’t. Ego and pride and fear keep people apart. You took all mine and made me a man not afraid to stand up or believe in himself and other people.

The only thing worth fighting for in life is your definition of beauty. When you see what that is everything else just pales.
