happy pill

finding

there's the core

and then there's everything else

a lot of pointless details and fluff

that lead to nowhere

and everywhere I am lost

you bring me out of myself

each and every moment that I'm with you

and even when I'm not

I'm starting to understand

you're truly my better half

but it feels like I've always known that

on some level

deep down

buried beneath the unimportant fluff

you're always enough

even when I'm drowning and my voice is cut off

you see me

and even when you don't understand what you see

not because you don't want to

but because you cannot

you still love me

you say you fall in love with me more

each and every day

and I believe you

because I know the feeling

but sometimes I feel sad thinking

there was ever a day I could have loved you less

because no one can love what one does not know

but then I remember

you're my better half

and somehow

in a way that words cannot explain

you were always there

you've always made up the parts of me I love

and now that we are one

you are every part of me
