Description When I said
"I don't understand you"
I didn't  mean
"I don't love you"

It meant I wanted to stay by you
And count your imperfections
Give them all a name
So I could scream them into the night
Letting everyone know how beautiful you truly are
Even if you refuse to see it

I wanted to help you realize
That just because a broken piece of glass
Gives you an image
That doesn't mean you are forced to believe it

If I could whisper the words
"Imperfections are beautiful"
To every bone and muscle
That give you the ability to fly
I would
So that doubt would never ground you
And your eyes could always sing

I love your voice
Especially when it's off key
Because it proves that you are real
It proves that you will
Let the world see you for who you really are
No matter how many octaves you're off


I want to sit with you and listen
To every word and complaint that you have to voice
Opinions only make us stronger
Prove to me that you can move mountains

When I said I didn't understand you
It only meant
I want to grow old
With the mystery your name brings
Every time you grace me
With your soft skin

Mysteries become tiresome
When solved before the end
So baby take my hand
And keep me guessing
