help me see the joy in this
help me know that it's ok to have suffered
help me know that around the corner is more happiness
help me not give in to despair
help me remember the night i took off my shoes and ran on the
cold marble floors
and you chased me
me in my red satin dress that twirled like a dream and kissing and laughing
help me remember the sweet sounds of birds in the morning
i don't want to be alone
i don't want to be scared
i want to be brave and lovely and not haunted and not cruel
i want to be with you
