When You Forget

You are stronger than you know.

I know it might not seem true,
I know that you won't always believe me,
But trust me you are.

On those days that you forget this,
Please read this.
Over and over again if you need to.

Let me be your reminder that you will get through this.

When you lose control,
when you no longer know where to turn or who to trust,
Let me be there.

I know I can't fix you.

Baby, there's nothing to fix.
You just have to live life.

I just want you to let me a part of that.

Even if it's just sitting in silence next to you.
I want to remind you how important you are.
How I couldn't make it through this life without you.

I know it seems crazy now.
That on the good days, I may not be needed as much,
But those days where you can only see darkness
Let me in.

Let me in to remind you why you get up.
Why you keep going.

Let me remind you of how much you matter when you forget.

And when I forget,
When I need someone to remind me,
I hope you'll return the favor.

Love,
Natalie
