I Left You This Box

April 8, 2017

You're so perfect.

You're here right now, visiting me. You brought your guitar. I never understood how you had the ability to be so sexy and so fucking cute all at the same time.

That thing you do when you play, where you hum along the words as you strum.. Occasionally a word or two will be audible, but the rest is just your incredibly soft, beautiful humming. I just wish you knew how effortlessly beautiful you are, oh my god.

I could go on about this all day. Except I can't, because you just stopped playing and asked me to "put down the art and give you attention." If only you knew...

I actually wrote you a song. I wanted to sing it for you before I left, but it's not done and you know what a perfectionist I am. If I don't finish it before I go, I'll just have Chris give you whatever there is.

Love,

Lauren

If I Could Fly

For Camila

If I could fly, I'd be coming right back home to you

I think I might give up everything just ask me to

Pay attention, I hope that you listen 'cause I let my guard down

Right now I'm completely defenseless

For your eyes only, I'll show you my heart

For when you're lonely and forget who you are

I'm missing half of me when we're apart

Now you know me, for your eyes only

For your eyes only

I've got scars even though they can't always be seen

And pain gets hard, but now you're here and I don't feel a thing

Pay attention, I hope that you listen 'cause I let my guard down

Right now I'm completely defenseless

For your eyes only, I'll show you my heart

For when you're lonely and forget who you are

I'm missing half of me when we're apart

Now you know me, for your eyes only

For your eyes only

I can feel your heart inside of mine, I feel it, I feel it

I've been going out of my mind, I feel it, I feel it

Know that I'm just wasting time

And I hope that
