Love is My Destruction

A candle burns flickers of light into my dark room 

I am shattered

Keyboard clicks and the tones of a Les Mis song 

I am heartbroken 

I smell the cool autumn air and dread going to school today

I am scared

 

But you know what?

I'm happy for them

Today I will laugh and sing!

I'm happy for me

Today I will spread happiness to as much of the world as I can

I'm happy for you

Despite my broken heart, 

I'm happy.
