These Things

You were the smiling face
I looked for when I had a bad
day at school.

The one I gave an apology to
when I had no reason too.

I always had a heart for you
even the feelings as well.

So I hope you save a place for me
when I stop breathing in this hell.

I loved you with all my heart
and soul secretly weird crust too
and I hope I see you in a better place
so I can tell all these things
to you.
