The real-life journal

Let me be your real-life journal

And let’s just settle in.

Grab some tea

That we can spill

As we start to begin

To tell tales of love

And broken dreams

And a life that could have been.

We’ll talk in paragraphs

With wonky laughs

Cause that’s just how life goes.

With some false starts

And upset hearts

And a place to call our own.

There’s no judgement here

Just a caring ear

And a friend to call sometimes

Cause it’s warm and bright

In the middle of the night

Even in trying times

We’ll share facts

And lies

And stories of guys

And often words unknown.

We’ll take deep gasps

This too shall pass

And one day we’ll have grown.

So, let’s just cry

And laugh

And scream

Cause sometimes life’s not fair.

You’re safe with me

And me with you

Nothing can compare.
