Oh honey
How it’s funny
Not so long ago
I couldn’t stand on my own two feet

Oh honey
How it’s funny
I lied to myself
In hopes to be the one to stay

Oh honey
How it’s funny
I’ve been playing make believe
For far too long now

But what’s really funny
Is these words
The songs I wrote with tears down my shirt
The paintings pressed with sorrow and emptiness

Will be the great works of the world


The author's comments:

I had a very serious boyfriend break up with me over not loving me anymore. It was devastating. I gave my everything to him. But in trying to cope with it all, I realized the creative passion I was putting out from it were truly beautiful things. And that I was becoming a stronger, better person.
