Better Than You Know

“You know you're in love when you can't fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams.” 
― Dr. Seuss
 
Today, I found myself wondering...
Wondering why I couldn't sleep
Wondering why seeing your face
Makes my life worth living
 
But then I remembered this dr Seuss quote
That reminded me of this insomnia
And though I should probably be asleep
I found it necessary to tell you how I feel
 
Yeah I'm shy
And I'm not the best at expressing myself
But girl..... When I'm down and out
You give me new life
When I'm ready to give up
You remind me why I haven't given up yet
 
I wanna have that chance
That chance you gave someone else
And although he broke your heart
And threw it away
I'll retrieve it
And make it brand new
 
If he didnt see your value
I'll be glad to
If he doesnt know the treasure that lay within
Then I'll just have to show him what you are worth
 
Every mistake he's made,
I'll make better for you
And you won't have to worry about anything
Except the colors we wear to prom
 
No more drama
No more pain
No more frustration
No more rain
 
Because you deserve to smile
And I wanna be the one that makes you
