Far From Perfect

sometimes i wonder why I am still here
my life is far from perfect
far from the way i wish it was.

The constant criticism destroys me
tears me apart bit by bit.

it seems like i have no purpose in life
no reason to live
I'm never treated right
i'm constantly forgotten
There is no point anymore.

why do i stay.
Sometimes i think that there is no reason
to keep living life like i do
just because of these bumps down the road

yet, these days when i feel like i can't go on
I see your name pop up on my phone
I smile, knowing that everything will be alright
Just a little longer and i can be in your arms again
Having someone to hold me tight

you make this pain all worth it,
you make the misery go away
Even though some days this is unbearable
Those days i am forgotten by everyone but you.

I can only hold on for a little bit longer.
I can only handle so much destruction.
my heart can only take so much breaking.
But with you, each kiss repairs it a little more
