Not Broken.




Sometimes, when we feel love, we feel it sadly.
We feel it overwhelmingly.
And its not for negative reasons.
Sometimes its because it's we never thought we could be loved. At least not like that.
And because we love someone back so wholeheartedly.
And it's scary.
But oh so beautiful. 

"I let you see the parts of me that weren't all that pretty
And with every touch, you fixed them."


We let people in, in ways we least expect,
And then they surprise, excite, and love us in ways we didn't expect.
When you feel that broken,
that unlovable,
The love that spawns from that,
Is unmatchable.

And it's sad.
But not in the way one would think.
No, nothing like that.
Its a type of sad that that brings a sense of joy.
As odd as that sounds.
We never think we can love as much as we do. 
 Because we felt broken.



"It's in the stars, it's been written in the scars on our heart
That we're not broken, just bent
And we can learn to love again."
