When it’s good it’s great, When it’s bad it’s worse. But all of my thoughts, Are always you first. There comes a time when love is no longer enough; Respect and reassurance is what I need. And while letting go can be tough, I need to put myself first in order to succeed. What was once so good, Has now lost its spark. What once brought me joy, Now makes me feel dark. When the time comes that I decide to let you go, Just know that I wanted nothing more than for it to be us in the end. I have to give myself the chance to grow, But I’ll always love you, even if just as a friend.

Sunrise – Lexi Leese The darkness sits in the sky Waiting for the sun to appear And climb into the horizon clear On that beautiful morning in July. The colors from this supply A piece of art above the frontier, With just a tiny smear Of white from clouds passing by. As the sun rises higher The sky goes from pink to blue. It seems as if its only desire Is for you to look up at it too, And think not of anything prior But be captivated by this view.
