“they told me my job description but i think i’ve got it wrong. they said i was supposed to man the lighthouse and save lost ships from going down.
but every time i saw the ships i forgot about the light. i dove headfirst into the sea and swam to save their life.
i drowned us both in the process; the ships never found the shore. i ended up helping less when i meant to be helping more.
i think when they told me to save people with my light, i mistook their words and tried to save people with my life.
i know i should have turned the light on, i know i should have taken their advice, but i don’t know what love is if it is not sacrifice.”

“I think I am the kind of person
that people fall in love with
too quickly
And I dont mean to complain
because it is wonderful to be loved
but I am also the kind of person
that people walk way from
when they realize
the beautiful pool of water
that they wandered into
is actually an ocean
with too many questions
I wish my company
didnt make people feel
like theyre drowning
mystery draws them in
then mystery makes them leave”
