Our Love is Worth the Trust

Start writing...

You're everything; you're the reason why

You're the brightest star up in the sky

You're the thoughts that keep me up at night

You're why any struggles are worth the fight

If I was left with nothing

I'd be proud and happy; and instead of being lost, I'd be pushing and shoving

Like a diamond in the rough, the silver may age to rusting

But honestly our love is worth the trusting

About the Creator

Shelby Davenport

I focus on writing pieces that help those when they may not be able to reach the surface on their own when drowning in this thing called life. It's easier said than done to tell yourself it'll be okay; so, allow my writing to speak to you.
