A resurrection of my life,
Oh how it was quite a sight.
You're like my new favorite drug,
something I can't get off of.
Let's burn the old memories and keeep the good ones going.
Let's forget all the old things holding us back.
Move forward together,
We won't need anybody else.
I was so dead for a while,
like nothing could help me.
Drained of all emotion I thought I once had.
Maybe I never had any?

Was I really ever this happy since you came along?
You changed everything.
My whole outlook on life.
God forsake us,
you've stolen my heart.
But I couldn't have been happier since the start. ?

The author's comments:
Sometimes somebody amazing comes along just to rip your heart out later, so I decided to accept my happiness at the moment.
