you kept my energy fucking hype all of the time. no matter the mood or the feels-- you always kept it real. no matter how hard i tried to blame myself for not being good enough, for not being strong enough to save you, for not being there when you needed someone. you still sang your songs and captured our hearts. inside of this life-- i’ve wasted so many years, but you’re a constant reminder to live life like it’s never going to be lived again. this moment. this one right now. this is it. this is all you’re going to get. so if there's anything I can give back to you it's this: 1. your shoulders are meant to tell stories, to fold the equations of the sun in sentences you can rewind until you're happy. 2. your heart can beat for two people at once. 3. the moments that make you won't always be the ones that save you. a mirror only reflects what you want to see, but darling, you're always beautiful. 4. are you going to die waiting? 5. if today was all you had, did you smile enough? would you have cried less about the ocean floor and more for the people you couldn't draw?
