"The Words we didn't Choose."

Written by Kester Henrick

You didn't like the way it sounded, but it was exactly what I wanted to hear.
Because there's nothing I find more attractive than honesty and how cute we'd look in the same photo.
I dyed my hair blond so I would have a valid excuse for my past mistakes.
I hide each one behind every strand.
But because no one knows me better than you, you accepted my faults and put up with it while I was on my own.
You watched and waited for me to return home.
and I promised I'd come visit you, no matter what.
But I promised myself much more.
and so I'll peirce my lip and grow my hair out because you asked me to.
Right now our symmetry is the most valuable quality we share.
and you have no idea how much I missed and love you too.
