Augustus' Lament

Hazel Grace
Your life is such a waste
Wish someone would teach you how to live

So that's when I came in
With my crooked grin
Ready to take on the world

Your smile shines so bright
You're like a burst of light
Can't help but feel like I've seen you before

You and I,
taking on the world together
Everything we do,
We do, whether or not they like it
I'm sorry I can't fix you
But I'll suffice to make you smile

Met you at a support group
With your oxygen tank in tow
How fitting,
because you took my breath away

We had the best time in Amsterdam
Wish I could tell you what I am
I'm in love with you

You and I,
taking on the world together
Everything we do,
We do, whether or not they like it
I'm sorry I can't fix you
But I'll suffice to make you smile

"I lit up like a Christmas tree, Hazel Grace"
Wish you wouldn't have to see me
like this
Everything we built together
Is all falling apart

You and I,
We took on the world together
Everything we did,
We did, whether or not they liked it
I'm sorry I won't be there when you cry
But I'll suffice to say I spent the best part of my life with you

We were the perfect two.
