...And for every day you paint the war, take a week and paint the beauty, the color, the shape of the landscape youโre marching towards. Everyone knows what youโre against; show them what youโre for.
Andrea GibsonRight now thereโs a man on the street outside my door with outstretched hands full of heartbeats no one can hear. He has cheeks like torn sheet music every tear-broken crescendo falling on deaf ears. At his side thereโs a boy with eyes like an anthem no one stands up for.
Andrea GibsonThis is my heartbeat like yours, it is a hatchet It can build a house or tear one down.
Andrea GibsonIโm never gonna wait that extra twenty minutes to text you back, and Iโm never gonna play hard to get when I know your life has been hard enough already. When we all know everyoneโs life has been hard enough already itโs hard to watch the game we make of love, like everyoneโs playing checkers with their scars, saying checkmate whenever they get out without a broken heart. Just to be clear I donโt want to get out without a broken heart. I intend to leave this life so shattered thereโs gonna have to be a thousand separate heavens for all of my flying parts.
