The Heartbreak is Over

Sunlight on my windowpane
Something new running through my veins
Every day is like a new beginning
It's something about the way I'm feeling
When you say you love me

Your words are ringing over and over
Changing everything I thought I knew
I know a love that's true
And it's all because of You
All because of You.

God: I feel Him everywhere and it's wonderful. I was in the dark for such a long time but I finally know who I am and even though I don't know where I am going in this life, I am enjoying the ride.

It should have been such a simple thing to grasp, growing up at church, but I always seem to forget: God loves me. No matter how many times I ignore him, disobey him, treat him like trash he always loves me. Which is incredible, because I've never met anyone in this world who is like that.

I used to be so sad all the time, even if I was always smiling. But all of that is gone now and I am so glad. Depressing poetry can be amazing and extremely touching but it was definitely time for me to outgrow it. I may not have everything figured out yet; there are a lot of things that I'm still unsure of. But all I know: the heartbreak is over.


ON THE RIDE

Life has moments hard to describe
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this mountain we're on (mountain we're on)
Always knowing we're gonna be fine
Feeling great and feeling alive
Never coming down from this mountain we're on (mountain we're on)
The view is so clear
and it's crazy up here:
Life is amazing with You on the ride.
