Losing has always been a part of us

From losing paper planes

That were never found

To losing friends

That didn’t stick around

Remember the gas balloon ?

That was lost in the air

Or that plant that died?

Even after all that care

Tell me did you cry ?

When your mom left you in school

Cause I cried too

And did you lie ?

“ I’m fine” wiping off your tears

Cause I lied too

Losing has always been a part of us

Like the footprints on the sand

Before you know , It’s gone

Washed away , and all that’s left

is the empty land .

I think that there's a void in everyone

Never satisfied always thirsty

Some don't realize it because for the time being they have a constant flow of love in their lives

But one's you are alone, and no one is there to call out

You feel it, and you feel it deeply.

I know these lines

Don’t matter as such

A couple of assembled words

Won’t make you love me as such

And I know if you leave

Nothing’s gonna make you stay

But I’ll put you into letters

To hold you close when you’re away

I know these lines

Don’t matter as such

Dreams might come true , but

You seem to be the only reality I can’t touch

I hope you fall in love with being alive. I hope you pick flowers and read books and understand that life is so much more than a Snapchat from a boy you won't remember in a couple of years. I hope you feel pursued.

I hope you have the best of friends, and I even hope you get in trouble together. I hope you make fun memories and take too many pictures and scream at the top of your lungs on roller coasters. I hope you swim in the depths of the oceans, and feel the dirt underneath your fingernails when you climb mountains. I hope you know the joys of genuine laughter, and I hope you know the difference between wisdom and test scores. I hope you understand that you can be anything you want to be, but you have to work hard to get it. I hope you do more than sit around and complain about the things that could change- because I hope you are the change. I hope you journal and write every thought down. I hope you learn how to skate, and eat your fruits and vegetables. I hope you treat your body well, and respect your reputation. But I also hope you have fun. In fact, I hope you have unapologetic fun.

Because my love,

I hope you fall in love with being alive.
