Just tell her she is perfect in the dark
her light shines
so the whole world can see her heart
hold her tight
so she knows if she ever did fall
you would be there to catch her
you will be there through every storm
love her fiercely
including all her scars
and if she is brave enough
to stand in front of you
broken and fragile
make sure she knows
she is more than enough
I am in a new relationship. My favorite thing is when he tells me how beautiful I am or how he loves the way my eyes gleam. I know it won't always be this magical, but I want to hold on to it...
More Than Enough
