there are no moments dedicated to me, and my name will soon be forgotten; but i've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, that's always been enough.

I wrote your name in the sand,
but the waves washed it away.
I wrote your name on my hand,
but I washed it the next day.
I wrote your name on a piece of paper,
but I accidently threw it away.
I wrote your name on my heart,
and forever it will stay.

life is too short.
grudges are a waste of perfect happiness.
laugh when you can,
apologize when you should;
and let go of what you can't change.
love deeply and forgive quickly.
take chances and give everything,
and have no regrets.
life is too short to be unhappy.
you have to take the good with the bad,
smile when you're sad.
love what you've got;
and always remember what you had.
always forgive but never forget.
learn from your mistakes,
but never regret.
people change and things go wrong,
but always remember:
Life Goes On.
:]

and sometimes you have to stand all alone,
just to make sure you still can.

every now and then, those three little words slip out. no, not 'i love you', and no, not 'i hate you'; but, 'i miss you'. and for an instant, i can't stand myself because i know you never thought about me half as much as i think about you.

true friends & true hearts;;
that's all that counts in life.

always hold your head up high,
even if on the inside you're about to cry.
pretend that nothing's wrong at all,
close your eyes before you fall.
if you can't see it, it's not there.
this is life and it's not fair.

[*]teenage love songs,
there is no such thing.
cause fucking is just fucking
when you're only sixteen.

whenever i'm walking down the hallway at school, and i see you coming my way, i determindly avoid looking at you. out of the corner of my eye i can see that you're not looking at me. but it makes me wonder if you're doing the exact same thing.

let go of what kills you,
and hold on to what keeps you breathing.

when i refuse to take shit and speak up against it, i'm defined as being a bitch. but if being a bitch means i won't allow anyone to step all over me, then all i have to say is: So Be It.

[*]Call me a slut, call me a whore;
Call me whatever, I've heard it before.
Say that I'm fake, say that I lie;
Say what you want, you won't make me cry.
Because I know that none of this is true,
But calling me all this shit;;
What the fuck does that make you?

don't base your decisions on the advice of people who don't have to deal with the results.

wasn't born with enough middle fingers to tell you how I really feel right now.

Don't get mad if I'm laughing. Blame the caffine from all the 5AM phone calls. I haven't slept a single night in over a month, and not even once did you start to make sense to me.

You undecisive mind shows me that you are "just another boy". I had a feeling that those looks you gave me were real. What if I ripped your heart apart at the seams? Maybe then you'd know how I feel.

[*]I loved you. Even now I may confess, some embers of my love fire still retain, but do not let it cause you more distress. I do not want to sadden you again. Hopless and tongue-tied, yet, I loved you. With pangs the jealous and timid know. So tenderly, I loved you, so sincerely. I pray God grant another love you so.

[*]Bombing for peace is like fucking for virginity.

Each time you open your mouth I want to rip your heart out. Each word you say to me is designed to make me hate myself worse than I hate you.

We're not equipped to stay unloved, but it's all we got.

& Just keep in mind,
whoever will gossip to you;
will also gossip about you.

Don't play games with a girl who can play them better.

"Woahh, you're always together."
& We're like,
"Duhh, we're best friends forever."

I think it's pretty much impossible to forget someone who was once the only reason you smiled.

I think the only reason why people hold onto memories so tight, for so long, is that memories are the only things that don't change when everything else does.

Love is the answer, at least. For most of the questions in my heart. Like, why are we here? And where do we go? And how come it's so hard? It's not always easy, and sometimes, life can be decieving. I'll tell you one thing, it's always better when we're together.

Middle School Called;;
They want their drama back.

Don't come running back to me when you get treated the exact same way you treated me.

you are my sweetest downfall.

Don't let me down with my ear to the groud. I can hear the earth sigh at the sight of your insides, so hide behind all the lies that you so deperately tell.

&I'm making up my time through time zones and city lines. And these days are all long, but they're all new.

sometimes all you wish for is for someone to wish for you.

Hate all you want,
because you can't break the girl
who thinks nothing of you.

Be optimistic:
all the people you hate now,
are eventually going to die.

**DRAMA:
it's funny how they say they hate it.
when they're the girls who always create it.

it's better to cross the line and suffer the consequences
than to just stare at that line for the rest of your life.

i think sometimes,
you have to lose someone completley
before you can figure out what they
really mean to you.

here she goes again.
she swallows her tears, puts her heart on her sleeve,
& acts like the girl everyone else wants her to be.

because i've seen love die,
way too many times
when it deserved to be alive.

you are the only one who really
understands when "I'm fine," means.

He has the ability to make you laugh
everytime he speaks & when you look at him,
it's hard to turn away.

But finally i realized what i knew all along;
it was those pointless five-minute chats i fell for.
it's weird how the stupidest things can remind me of you.

there will always be those awkward moments
when you walk by that one person and remember
all that you once had.

**i told him i loved him, and the feeling was mutual.
he loved himself too.

i always fall for that one guy who is so out of reach,
but still close enough to make it hurt.

++ The Little Rascals.

i saw the sun shining today, i finally cracked a smile.

i'll say, "oh nothing."

when someone tells you they somehow stopped missing you, you pretty much lose no matter what you say.

++That 70's Show.

It was just a feeling, a whooshing in my ears, not love.

my heart is anywhere but here;
and how tired i was from the past couplde of weeks,
from the past couple of years.
well it hit me, all at once.
on a balcony overlooking nothing,
with snow falling all around,
i called to say goodnight.

i think i need a new town, to leave this all behind. i think i need a sunrise, i'm tired of sunset. i hear it's nice in the summer, some snow would be nice. Boston; where no one knows my name.
+ + Augustana;; Boston.

six months later; the first time they saw each other since that one night, but the feelings were still there. as they talked, she couldn't look him in the eye. he reached for her hand & said "are you okay?" and with trembling hands & a cracking voice, she managed to say, "i've never been better."

while you stood there deciding to get the net,
the butterfly flew away.

fate loves the fearless.

i'm half alive but i feel almost dead.
i try to tell myself it'll be alright,
i just shouldn't think anymore tonight.

there are three types of people in this world:
people who can count, and people who can't.

++ Marilyn Manson.

you're my exuse
for my open eyes when i lay up in bed.
you have a hold on me
that i can never forget

i'm just another line in this book you wrote. i've been erased, crossed out, and scratched in again. you've replaced me before with prettier words, and now you've put me right back on my usual page.

the ozone layer is decreasing,
while our country's men overseas are increasing.
what's important to the man behind the desk?
why, i believe it's his paycheck.

a beautiful lie is what you sang to me, and i believed every note.

riding in this car, my feet on the dash.
trying to forget about you.
some said it was "young love".
but i say it was too good to last.

you asked me to be yours and i kind of laughed at the question because the truth is, i've always been yours.

everything is disposable to you.
music. trends. fashion.
your friends must be, too.
cause you pushed me away,
like i was just a piece of trash.

my heart broke a little more when you told her "i love you."

some have labeled me so savvy.
& i'll admit, i agree to disagree.
do your knees go weak when i simply speak?
and did you hear that i am so charming?

stood on my roof, and tried to see you forgetting about me. hide the details, i don't want to know a thing. i hate the way you say my name, like it's something secret. my pen is the barrel of the gun;; remind me which side you should be on?

//[EDIT]\\

talk is cheap, but lies are expensive.
guess i'm wealthy today.

consider this: he was moving on while she was busy trying to pass the time between the previous & next nervous breakdown. the girl had given up the love of her life.

i wish i could tell you something more colorful than "i love you", but I love you.

look at me like you forgot my name
and keep walking past.
but i'm smarter than that.
because i can see you looking at me
from the corner of your eye.

one boy, one girl.
two hands, clasped.
four eyes, locked.
one heart;;
in their world.

the more you get to know a person, the more attractive them become to you. because everything beautiful you see on the inside of them, suddenly you're able to see on the outside of them too.

some people say you're going the wrong way,
when it's simply a way of your own.

you see her confidence is tragic,
her intuition is magic.

i wanna see the sky in a new shade of blue,
and through it all, i wanna be with you.
i'm gunna ride that coaster like i never did before
and scream, scream, scream
about the secrets i've never told at all.
i want to break the rules
and go down the one way street the opposite way.

don't tell me you haven't called cause you're busy, girls have radar for that kind of lying.

do you find the end of the rainbow in my eyes?
and the pot of gold in our kiss?
i'm hoping my voice is luck to you,
because you're the only one that makes me feel like this.

i never finish phrases i misspell,
an open arms a prison cell.
when i said, "i hate what i've become,"
i lied, i hated who i was.
so when you start to wonder
about the pain in my throat,
then don't you ever, no never ever
speak for someone you don't know.

do or do not, there is no 'try'.

& i've made myself the fool, who's fallen for you.
so let me down softly this time,
and i won't have time to come back crying.
i've just made myself look bad;
and you're the one who should be feeling bad.
it'd be best to forget you,
but i really don't want to.

the whole world is moving, and i'm standing still.

long live the car crash hearts.

ex-friends til the end,
better off as lovers.
and not the other way around.
racing through the city
windows down,
in the back of yellow checkered cars.

i haven't been this scared, in a long time. and i'm so unprepared, so here's your valentine. bouquet of clumsy words, a simple melody. this worlds an ugly place, but you're so beautiful to me.
++ Blink-182

i hear the sirens, and i wonder who won't get a second chance.

Love is like swallowing hot chocolate before it`s cooled off.
It takes you by suprise at first, but it keeps you warm for a long time

But I finally realized what I knew all along;
it was those pointless 5 minute chats I fell for.

its weird how only the stupidest things can remind me of you.

There will always be those awkward moments where you walk by that one person and remember all that you once had.

Sometimes it's easier to say you don't care instead of trying to explain every reason why you still do.

I second guess my
every move I make
around you.

You said you'd love me forever. I
guess your fingers were crossed.

i can't explain what its like
not knowing
if i ever cross your mind

Sometimes those who give
advice are in need of it most

I told him i loved him
and the feeling was mutal..
he loved himself too

Its sad when people you know
become people you knew

You are the only one that really
Understands what "I'm fine" means

I'm at this point in my life where
I'm daring someone to push me off a
cliff, just to see if I can fly

He's the only boy that makes
my heart beat faster and
slower at the same time

& She screamed "Are you flipping me?" I replied "Like a pancake"

he has the ability
to make you laugh everytime he speaks
&& when you look at him
its hard to turn away

It's saddest thing to
look into someones eyes
& realize they will never love you.

Don't ever say you're not good
enough because if he cant
see how amazing you are
then he's the one who's not
good enough.

We laugh and we smile and have a great time,
its funny you dont know, im dying inside.

The words you say,
make or break my day.

Its kind of amazing
how one person can make your day
incredibly perfect

I think sometimes,
you have to lose
someone completely;
before you can figure out
what they really mean to you

Here she goes again.
she swallows her tears.
puts her heart on her
sleeve & acts like the girl
everyone else wants her to be

Don't let someone create you because once they do,
they can destroy you

DRAMA:
its funny how they say they hate it
when they're the girls who always create it

You think you know me? Your the most predictable girl i've ever met. Let me tell you who you are. You walk around everyday crying like something sad happened to you. Oh im deffrent im my own individual; grow up girl & look around, your like everyone else. I care what people think about me but I know I shouldnt, thats crap. You need to get yourself straight. Get yourself straight before you someone comes along & puts you in your place.

Pshh. screw stacy's mom -
my best friends are the ones
who've got it goin` on

If i had a snowflake for everytime
i thought about you, we would
never have school

Because i've seen love die
way too many times
when it deserved to be alive

I've seen love end on a couple thats truly meant to be together. Hows love ever gonna live in a word like this ... ?

Hot is just a word boys use when
they're too chicken to say beautiful

I wanna be the girl you
hit the home run for

Dont push your relationship with a person too hard,
if its meant to be then it will happen

It's true.
we block out things
we don't want to remember

It’s better to cross the line &
suffer the consequences
than to just stare at that line
for the rest of your life

Stand up for what you believe in..
even if your standing alone

Be optimistic.
All the people you hate now,
are eventually going to die

I love you in a
" i wish a car would hit you"
kind of way

Life is hard;
it's harder if you're stupid

If you have trouble seeing him
with someboy else;
you're not over him

I said, "I love you."
and he said the same.
I said, "call me when you miss me."
He smiled and kissed me.
I walked towards my car,
and my phone rang

Hate all you want.
Because you cant
break the girl
who thinks nothing of you

Love is when you tell a
guy you like his shirt
and he wears it everyday

Don't fight your feelings sweetie,
it makes life complicated

Boyfriend: *starts laughing*
girlfriend: what are you laughing about?
boyfriend: i dont know..
i just think its so hilarious
that you actually think
you love me more than i love you

He's not the kind of guy you
date; he's the kind you marry

Sometimes it takes
being away from someone
for a while to realize how much you
really need them in your life

Nobody with a broken heart,
wants to hear a love song

Wait for the guy who will
let his arm fall asleep,
just because you look
too cute to move

Often, the things you are scared of
are the things you need the most

And he looked at me with that look in his eyes; you know..
The one that kinda says,
"hey, i love you"

listen to your enemies;
tell you all of your faults

Let's look back at all
these memories. that's
when hats were in and
so were converse but now
the only thing that is real
is f.a.k.e.

There comes a time where
friends turn to bitches.
Boys turn into toys.
Barbies turn into iPods.
The occasional e-mail becomes iming.
And before you know it,
you've grown up.

you see her in the
back of every class.
never says a word.
never raises her hand.
you know her name starts
with something from A-Z.
But guess what, kid.
She loves you.

He's my best friend.
He's the one who makes me laugh.
He's the one who hugs me when I cry.
He's the one I look for in a crowd.
He's the one I know will understand.
He's the one I love.
He's the one who will save me.

We weren`t meant to be, at least not in this lifetime,
but you gave me something to remember.

Saw you today & you seemed so surprised..
that i could walk by & not blink an eye..
look at me, probably thinking im doing fine..
good thing you cant read my mind.

part of me wants to find the right words to hurt you,
the same way you hurt me.

We're all just living a lie,
because nothing is real anymore.

It's like you're falling in love
While I'm falling apart

If I'm just bad news
than you're a liar

Another pinch of skin
Just one more dab of coverup
Another little smudge of lipstick
Why do I even bother?
I'll never be good enough for you.

The only place I wanna be is in his arms...
too bad someone's already there

Even if I screamed in your face
that I like you I don't think you would notice

I can't seem to move on...
I only think of you more

trust yourself
you know more then you think you do

everyone has a weakness,
but i have two.
everything you say and
everything you do

If Iever write a story about my life
don't be surprised if your name
appears a bagillion and one times.

we are not the girls your
mom warned you about,
because her imagination
could never be this wild

you're the king of mixed signals
i'm the queen of excuses
together, we're sort of a
beautiful disaster

don’t be shy.
let’s cause a scene,
like lovers do
on silver screens.

There are two things that are infinite; the universe and human stupidity. and I’m not sure about the first one. ---Albert Einstein.

& I find myself wondering ;;
If you feel anything for me

I watched you slide out through the
backdoor. I never met her, but when I do...
I'll thank her for saving me from you.

true love brings up everything-
you're allowing a mirror to be held up to you daily.

I've been holding on to this stupid crush
for so long, I think I was scared to let go of it.
you know, if I did, if I admitted that we
were never going to get together, that somehow
it would put everything into question.
like, without that possibility, I had nothing.

in highschool, you are what other people
say you are. when it comes down to it, you don't
remember the people you tried to impress.

and i wanna be the girl that saves him.
the one that he'd be absolutely lost without.
i wanna be the one who makes his life worth living.

the taste of love is sweet
when hearts like ours meet

Still flames in valentines
Won't keep me in his mind

heartbroken && softspoken - -
so go on baby; ; walk right past me
I'm used to it.

it's funny how you can make me
hate you, but love you at the same
time. it's funny how no matter how
many times you ignore my feelings,
i dont give up. it's funny how you're
so blind to whats in front of you; i'm
right in front of you. isn't it funny

&& she burries her head into her pillow,
trying to forget every mistake that she's made.

I'm not perfect. I'll annoy you -- piss you off,
say stupid things and then take them back. But,
put all that aside, and you'll realize that
you'll never find
a girl that cares about you more than me.

I know better than anyone
what happens when you get attached.

I saw you today and realized how far apart
we've grown. I know I should talk to you and
ask you how you're doing, and I wish I could.
But it occured to me that we're strangers now.
You don't know me anymore, much less want to.
Everything is so different now.

It's not who you spend the most time with,
it's who you have the best memories with.

a friend is someone who helps you when you're down
& if they cant, they'll lay down beside you & listen

and to be honest - i hope she breaks
your heart like you broke mine


Dressed to kill, you look so right.
I am drunk with lust tonight.

it's so sad realizing two people,
who were once so close,
barely speak a word anymore.

I can't seem to move on.
I only think of you more.

Fear leads to anger.
Anger leads to hate.
Hate leads to suffering.

I'd cheat destiny
just to be near you.

"The force will be with you... always."
-Ben KenObi

Some things, you can't see with your eyes.
Only with your heart.
-The Land Before Time

Just because I'm listening
doesn't mean we're friends.

You've already forgotten
what I could never get out of my head.

"Sweetie, if you're so confused, listen to your heart. Your friends just want what they think is best for you. Listening to what your parents say is just molding you into what they want you to be. And... well, yno... conformity sucks."

Sticks and stones are hard on bones,
Thrown at you like a dart.
Words can sting like anything,
But silence breaks the heart.

I'm a jealous girl.
I hate every girl that talks to you, calls you,
& gives you attention, cuz for that time,
you don't think about me. I just...
I want you to think about me like I think about you.

"So you want a heart? You dont know how lucky you are not to have one. Hearts will never be practical until they are made unbreakable."

What you did to me. What you put me through.
I'll never forget. I can't let myself fall for anyone.
I can't let myself go through that again.

"Sorry. I'm not going to let anybody in again. It's nothing personal, it's just that I've already made that mistake."

"I don't believe in ghosts, but I've seen my fair share."
-Sean Connery

Life is beautiful.
When you learn how to love pain.

I can't listen to my favorite songs anymore,
because each drum beat is a massacre,
each keystroke is a regret,
and each chord is a memory of you.

Tears don't fall.
They crash around me.

"I've got more skeletons than a graveyard."

But just then my knees give under me
My head feels weak and suddenly
It's clear to see, it's not them, but me
Who's lost my self-identity
And I hide behind these books I read
While scribbling poetry
Like art could save a wretch like me
With some ideal ideology
That no one could hope to achieve
And I'm never real, it's just a sketch of me
And everything I've made is trite and cheap and a waste
Of paint. Of tape. Of time.

"There will be a day when the courage of men will fail. But that day is not this day. This day, we fight!"
-Aragorn, Return of the King

I understand that scissors can beat paper. And I get how rock can beat scissors. But there is so freaking way that paper can beat rock. Paper is supposed to magically wrap around the rock, leaving it immobilized? Why the hell can't paper do this to scissors? Screw scissors--why can't paper do this to people? Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class? I'll tell you why! Because paper can't beat anybody! A rock would tear that motha up in about 2 seconds. When I play rock/paper/scissors, I always choose rock. Then when someone claims to have beaten me with their paper, I can punch them in the face with my already clenched fist & say, "Oh crap, I'm sorry. I thought paper would protect you."


Hold me now;
I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin
maybe six feet ain't so far down...

Trust me; you're impossible to ignore.

I wish you knew what it felt like
when I'm talking to you.
Maybe then you'd stop
stringing me along and
make me yours.

I wish my life were more like Tigger's and less like Eeyore's.

I look at her and I think to myself,
Psh. What does she have that I don't?
And then my head screams,
E V E R Y T H I N G .

heartbroken && softspoken
so go on baby, walk right past me.
I ' m u s e d t o i t .

You hit me with the truth.
But I think a bus would've been better.

I guess I remember
every glance
you shot me.

I never shot for the stars,
I never wanted the moon.
I like them right where they are.
All I wanted was you

If I had a snowflake
for every time I thought about you,
We'd never have school.

I'm dying to explain my heart to you now.
There's so much on my mind, it's tearing me apart.

and it's days like this when the sun is shining
and all i can think of is your face. and the place
i once loved is the place i hate. and i can't get
you out of my head. and all i can think of that
night when i would have given up the world
for you. and that same night i watched you
walk away.

You're not alone here,
not at all.
Let me belong here.
Break my fall.

&& as the years go on,
you slowly lose the friends
you never thought you would.

*** && will you dig my grave shallow?
So I can feel the rain?

We'll meet again
when both our cars
c o l l i d e . . .

like all of the sudden I didn't
fit in anywhere. not at school,
not at home.. and every time
I turned around, another person
I'd known forever felt like a
stranger to me. even I felt like
a stranger to me.

You jump, I jump. Right?

"There's lots of things to think about,
but nothing to worry about."
-Matthew Keopke

Fine. But when she dumps
you or you dump her don’t come
back to me. Because I’m not good
enough now and I won’t be
good enough then

We talk as if nothing has ever happened between us. I smile at you like you never meant anything more than a friend. But look in my eyes, I hope you know I'm dying inside.

love me or hate me
it's still an obsession.

& I'm so far from being strong again
I'm so far from being well.
& I'm so far from you.
& I'm way too close to hell.

If you could go anywhere right now,
where would you go?
And would you miss me when you get there?

I want you to be happy,
even if that means I won't be.

life is but a dream
for the dead.

You took for granted
all the times I never let you down.

We picked up things from each other.
Random phrases and bad habits. And
darling I must admit, you changed me.

"It starts with a dream. Dreams are how we figure out where we want to go. Life is how we get there. Always allow time for traffic."
--Kermit The Frog

i'm the girl who loves you inside and out,
backwards and forwards with my heart
hanging out. i love no other way.

♥

i love you, i have loved you all along.
i miss you. been far away for far too long.
i keep dreaming you'll be with me,
and you'll never go.

♥

It's not just a physical attraction,
I love him for every single thing he is.
Every word he says, every step he takes.
This is something that will never die.
I have tried to stay reasonable with this,
but I just can't anymore. I just can't

♥

Don't be shy. Let's cause a scene
Like all over-dramatic lovers do.
Lights ;; Camera ;; Heartbreak

♥

bought my heart at a thrift store.
75 cents, i got ripped off,
and now its on resale for the highest bidder.
old vinyls, duct tape, and broken-hearted
trade-ins are accepted.
very useful as a doormat, target,
or just something to trash.

♥

she's afraid of being alone
afriad of being left behind
she doesnt no what to do
when all the tears fill her eyes
she knows you'll leave her one day for someone better
but she wants you to know that her love for you is forever

♥

if i was drop dead gorgeous, perfect
&& all and if i had a oppertunity to choose
any guy in the world i'd still pick you

♥

I need to let go
I can't let the tears show.
I put on that smile and pretend it's okay.
When in reality nothing's going my way.
I only want one thing-just one.
I just want you-you're my only one.
Dying inside so sick and tired
Of being second best and undesired

♥

Everytime i think of him, i just fall apart.
He`ll never know what lies, deep inside my heart.
If only he knew how much i loved him,
He might understand how much i need him.
I don`t know why i`m so deep in love,
He`s so addictive. He`s like a drug.
He`s got me hooked, and i can`t let go now.
I need to move on. If only i knew how... <|3

♥

im not gonna lie
other guys cross my mind
but as soon as i really compare
they`re nothing compared to you
everytime another boy goes
in & out of my mind ..
it only strengthens my love
[F o r . y o u]

have you ever wanted to die
but be alive at your funeral
just to see whos there crying for you

as you go through life, you`ll see there is
so much that we don`t understand. & the
only thing we know is things don`t always
go the way we planned.

Laugh when nothing's funny..
Dance when there's no music..
Sing like you've never sung before..
Love till it hurts..
Cry when you're sad..
Smile when you're happy..
And always live each day like its your last.

The best love is the kind that awakens the soul;
that makes us reach for more, that plants the fire
in our hearts and brings peace to our minds.
That's what I hope to give you forever.

At times like these,
I feel like a white crayon--
completely useless.

always be yourself because eventually,
he's going to find out...
how you sing silly songs,
how you dance crazy.
The fact that you hate sitting in a window seat,
how you sometimes can't seem to listen,
how certain songs make you really happy,
how you get cranky without enough sleep,
how you don't like the way you look in most of your pictures,
how you can't get off the phone when you're late
because you don't want to sound like you don't care.
He's going to know all of it;
And he's still going to love you.

Sometime, I spin around in my desk chair,
dance through the house like a dork,
recite Mother Goose rhymes to nobody.
Whatever it takes to get my mind off of you.

doubt me & I'll prove you wrong.
tell me what to do & I'll tell you off.
say I'm not worth it & watch where I end up.
call me a bitch & I'll show you one.
screw me over & I'll do it to you twice as bad.

when scientists discover the
center of the universe,
don't be surprised when it isn't you.

She's completey
Unexplainable
You think she's
One good girl
But when you
Get to know her
She's everything
She's crazy
She's funny
She's honest
& You'll never
Know what she
Will do next

In my high school,
we seperate the rich from the rest.
Those who wear rags,
from those who only wear the best.
& in my high school,
they hold assemblies
for the football team,
but never for the kids
with different dreams.
& we've got jocks, & we've got smokers,
rednecks & jokers.
There's a category for us all.

wouldn't it be ironic
if at this very moment
you were thinking of me
as i'm thinking of you

let me clarify something..when i said i couldn`t live without you..i lied.
what i meant was i couldn`t have a life worth living without you.
when i said i needed you..& i`d never fall in love again..i lied..
what i meant was that i`d never fall in love like this again..
when i told you that you were the best thing in my life..
i meant you were the best thing in my life so far..
& when i said i`ll love you forever..what i meant was until the end of time..
& that i`ll still be here..should you ever change your mind.

If it means marrying you
with a ringpop instead of
a diamond, i would do it.

there's this girl... that thinks your absolutely
nothing less than perfect, despite your flaws
there's this girl... that dreams about holding you
and loving you with all her might forever
there's this girl... that would give her own life
for you because you make hers worth living
there's this girl... that thinks you're her entire world
but you don't see that because you're too busy
with the girl that couldn't care less

it was cold. your hands were shaking, & i stepped in front of you
just to wrap my arms around you as i said, "let's pretend winter
isn`t here." as you buried your head into my shoulder, you said,
"let`s pretend the snow isn`t the only thing falling fast."

What hurts is when you spend
every waking hour,
every single wish,
every single thought
on someone that will never care..
thats what hurts.

ILOVEYOUThe three most commonly
Misused, misunderstood,
And overused words in the
English language

Take it all off," he said.
"What, my clothes?"
"No, your make-up; your mask."

learn to laugh until your stomach hurts. act
so crazy people think your high && live for
the days with your best friends ;; && just
have fun because life's too short to worry
about change

hello darkness my old friend,
i've come to talk to you again.

I'm scared my heart will regret
all the things that I've done.


Sweetheart, you can't bullshit me.
I've lied to myself enough to know
when someone else is doing it.
So let's try this again,
& how about we tell the truth this time.


& you ask why I havent talked to you.
Well maybe, its because you slowly
pushed me out of your life.
I'm glad you're finally noticing.


So, my summer love never came.
Now, I'm waiting for a winter romance.


And her late night convos always have
backspaces with what she's trying to say.


I want you so bad. Okay there.
I admitted it. Are you finally happy?
I admit that I fell hard for you,
harder than I've ever fallen in my life.
& you weren't there to catch me.


It's the cute things he says
that get me everytime.


I've accepted that we can't be,
but I've also accepted that
you're going to be that one person
I carry with me for the rest of my life.
The one that is always going to
make my heart jump a little
and my stomach tie up in knots.


But you stopped yourself and kissed me.
And I grabbed your lips and told you,
"I know, I know, I know
I feel the same as you."

Well everything's another excuse
to keep from doing what I want to.
Like, I would really love to kiss you
but I guess I'm in no condition

I'm cutting ties with all the jealous zombies.
I need to feel your warm body on me
when the sun goes down
& the shadows grow.
Just trust in us & forever know
Please keep holding on to me.


Feel your heart, it breaks
within your chest now.
Try to get some rest now.
Sleep's not coming easy
for a while, child.


Ever have one of those days
that was just perfect?
I have. This isn't it.
This definitely isn't it.
But there's always tomorrow.


The mind has so many memories.
Can you remember what I
look like when I cry?


So this is how it feels to be insane.
The world looks like a movie,
that's always playing.
But how can hearts so young
feel so much pain?


And after all this time that you still owe,
you're still the good-for-nothing I don't know.
So take your gloves and get out,
better get out while you can.


Through it all how could you cry for me?
Cause I don't feel bad about it.
So shut your eyes,
kiss me goodbye and sleep, just sleep.


Here's to the good life,
or so they say.
All those parties & games,
that all those people play.
They tell me this is the place to be.
All these beautiful people,
& nothing to see.


Don't rock the jukebox,
I wanna hear some Jones
cause my heart ain't ready
for the Rolling Stones.
I dont feel like rockin' out
since my baby's gone.

[[1]]
you learn a lot about people
when you listen to the songs
that mean something to them.

[[2]]
i almost had you,
but almost doesn’t count.

[[3]]
i've recently decided to give up on you.
so i took all those papers
with your name written all over them,
i ripped them up
and shoved them under my bed.
i was fine for a while,
but i keep finding those
little pieces of paper everywhere.

[[4]]
suicide is contagious.
look around your family,
look closely at that four year old
playing with her dolls on the rug.
kill yourself tonight
& she might do it 10 years from now.

[[5]]
everywhere i look i see
people with their boyfriends.
it makes me feel like
everyone has someone
except for me.

[[6]]
it’s hard to watch someone you love
change before your eyes and know
you can't do anything about it,
& it's heartbreaking to remember
them as they once were.

[[7]]
and the rain fell down,
and i lay there and cried.
the sound of thunder soothed me,
and a piece of me slowly died.

[[8]]
don't let them see that you're hurting.
don't let them know you're real.
don't let them destroy you.

[[9]]
even though you're
right next to me,
i still feel so alone.

you have beautiful, beautiful eyes.
so bright and alive and enchanting.
i want to be with you all of the time.

[[2]]
let's walk in the rain
and hold hands the whole time.

[[3]]
our hearts and heads
are made of glass.
our hearts and heads
will come undone.

[[4]]
and everyone warned her
of that boy's smile,
his poision kiss & toxic touch.
but her craving for him
was just way too much.

[[5]]
even though i remind myself
that we'll most likely
never be together,
i just can't let myself
fall for anyone else.

[[6]]
rock and roll boy,
come outside tonight.
put your arms up in the moonlight.
have you ever been in love?
well i sure have.
well this is something
you should consider.

[[7]]
it's actually sort of amazing
how one person can make
your day absolutely perfect.

[[8]]
dance with me baby,
let me hear your voice.
oh if didn't wanna fall for you,
i never had a choice.

[[9]]
so many thoughts that
i cant get out of my head,
i try to live without you,
every time i do i feel dead.
i know what's best for me
but i want you instead,
i'll keep on wasting all my time.

[[10]]
say you love me.
you can lie if it is comforting.
and i wont even mind it so bad,
wont even find it so sad.

hey little baby,
with your studded belt.
i said all you little kids
that love rock 'n' roll,
you sure got style,
but you ain't got soul.

[[2]]
usually im level-headed,
aint too excitable.
keep it on the slow & steady,
Mr. Dependable.
always had the same job,
the same look, the same friends,
thats the way its gonna stay,
thats the way its always been.

[[3]]
we'll all look the same someday
and even now the robot starts to think,
i wonder what it dreams.

[[4]]
don't tell me your troubles,
ive got enough of my own.
be thankful for living.
drink up and go home.

[[5]]
i'm writing you this letter
to let you know i'm not alright.
and in this city,
the streets are paved with hate.
and you'll cry yourself to sleep tonight.

[[6]]
december is the darkest
and june is the light,
but this empty bedroom
won't make anything right.
while out on the landing,
a friend I forgot to send home
who waits up for me
all through the night.

[[7]]
it's cold tonight and
the leaves are scattered
all over the ground.
i miss the seasons,
and the comfort of your smile.

[[8]]
just be who you are.
wait your turn, don't push.
be beautiful, be graceful.
if you're gonna get angry,
be angry behind closed doors.
don't ever let them see you sweat,
but just hold your head up
no matter what and don't ever
let anyone stomp you out.

[[9]]
i'm busting at the seams to tell you everything.
and it's scaring me cause nothing's sure,
and nothing makes sense anymore.

[[10]]
people dont keep
journals for themselves.
they keep them for other people.
like a secret that they
don't want to tell
but they want everyone to know.

if you truly missed me, youd call everyday.
just so you wouldnt forget my voice.

i dont believe in the word "regret".
i believe in the phrase "you messed up, & you learned from it."

yeah, some things in this world might have passed me by, & i might of missed a chance or two.
but you wont find any regret in my eyes.

when people walk away from you,
let them walk.
Your destiny is never tied to anyone that left.

Go ahead and tell me my dreams are

Unrealistic, and I’ll tell you yours

Aren’t big enough

[130]

don't look for love, it will find you.

[129]

sometimes in life, you find a special friend; someone who changes your life just by being part of it. someone who makes you laugh until you can't stop. someone who makes you believe that there really is good in the world. & someone who convinces you that there really is an unlocked door just waiting for you to open it.

[128]

if you want what you never had you have to do what you've never done.

[127]

you only have one life to live, so do whatever you want. don't ever let anyone tell you how to live your life. believe what you wanna believe and say what you wanna say, cause no one can help how they feel. be yourself cause there's only one you out there. when life gives you it's tasks and obstacles, overcome them. when you think that you can't do something anymore, you haven't actually tried. labels are worthless and drama is pointless, yet we all still do it. working hard for something and then getting it, is a better feeling than not working hard at all and getting things just handed to you. love isn't a maybe thing, you either be with or without someone, there's no in between, but dating someone isn't a necessity. and looks really aren't everything. "i wish i wasn't here, i wish i was dead", shut up everyone's here for a reason. when bad things happen in life, you just have to accept the fact that it happened and just move on and don't look back on the past. don't regret something if you learned something out of it, cause mistakes make you stronger.

[126]

yeah, i miss him. but i think i miss what i wanted him to be more than what he actually was.

[125]

i want to be that girl he's scared to lose. the one that he can't walk away fom knowing she's mad at him. the one who he can't fall asleep without her voice being he last one he hears. the one he wouldn't know what to do without.

[124]

that's life. if nothing else, its life. it's real, and sometimes it fuckin' hurts, but it's sort of all we have.

garden state

[123]

the moment you walked in my life is the moment i started to believe again.

[122]

i've looked around enough to know that you're the one i want to go through time with.

[121]

sometimes you have to test someone. not because you don't trust them, but to see how much they'll sacrifice for you. and sometimes you have to let them go, not because you suddenly stopped loving them, but to see if they love you enough to come back.

[120]

admit it. you'll only want me when you can't have her.

[119]

over the course of the average lifetime you meet a lot of people. some of them stick with you through thick and thin. some weave their way through your life & disappear forever. but once in awhile someone comes along who earns a permanent place in your heart.

the wonder years

[118]

falling in love with someone isn't always going to be easy. it is often filled with anger and tears. it is when you want to be together despite is all. that is when you are truly in love.

[117]

don't waste your time regretting all your wrongs. know that in the end, you'll get what your heart longs. try not to risk it all; don't stumble; don't fall. take the time to read the writings on the wall. hold your head high; don't be afraid to say goodbye. stay true and be you. do everything there is to do. live life to the fullest and never look back

there is a reason for the future and a reason for the past. love til it hurts; laugh til you cry. and when your life flashes before you die, be happy for what you've done, be happy for what you've overcome, and most of all, be proud of what you've become.

[116]

don't base your decisions on the advice of people who don't have to deal with the results.

[115]

everyone's afraid of moving on because once they start to, the person they used to love comes running back to them.

[114]

be mine. nothing more, nothing less.

[113]

i can see myself waking up next to you, your face being the first thing i see everyday, with that bed-head hair and that sleepy smile.

[112]

for the first time in my life, i feel like i'm doing something right becaue when i look at him, it's there. in everything he does to me, it's there. i don't know what it is, but i know that it is there, and it's never going to leave.

[111]

so this is when we finally learn the real meaning of change. you do the things you used to be against, you date the people you thought you never would, & you befriend the people you used to hate. you'll learn what it's like to have your heart broken, to lose a friend that truly meant something to you, & to feel as if everything is really falling apart. there will be times that your life seems so absolutely horrible it feels like it's not real. despite all this, good things will come too. you'll make the most amazing friends that will be there for you even when they probably shouldn't. your broken heart will heal once you find the most perfect guy you've ever met, & just as nothing else can go wrong, things will only get better. there will be the days you are so happy, & the days that you feel like dying. drama happens, gossip goes around, & people talk shit. maybe this is just highschool, maybe it's life, or maybe this is just what growing up is.

[110]

we are what we are, and sometimes that's not enough.

[109]

i don't know why we all hang onto something we know we're better off letting go. it's like we're scared to lose what we don't even really have. some of us say we'd rather have that something than nothing at all, but the truth is... to have it halfway is harder than not having it at all.

[108]

i took a risk, i took a chance & something in my heart tells me that i never would of known love if i never met you.

[107]

being born is like being kidnapped. and then sold into slavery.

- andy warhol

[106]

because we couldn't see each other everday, it made the times we spend a lot more special.

[105]

it's funny how when you finally get over someone, you start seeing them in a whole new perspective. it's like you're looking at them thru the eyes of your best friend. & you realize, he's nothing special. he's just another ordinary boy.

[104]

she turned and said "it's times like these that i wish i was a believer, so i could do something to give me hope. something to make me believe in anything at all."

[103]

it's not that i believe everything happens for a reason. it's just that i think that some things are meant to be broken. imperfect. chaotic. it's the universes way of providing contrast, you know? there has to be a few holes in the road, because that's just how life is.

[102]

i wanna get to the point where no matter what happens, no matter how long we go with out being together, no matter how many fights we get in; that all we need is a kiss and suddenly we remember why we love eachother so much.

[101]

when you start to fall in love, you give half a heart away, when you start to fall in love, you hardly find words to say, but be careful who you love because you'll quickly learn that even though you give your half away, you don't always get one in return.

[100]

one day you'll cry like i cried for you.

[99]

forget the risk, take the fall. if it's what you want, then it's worth it all.

[98]

there's never an ending, just new beginnings. the past makes you who you are but won't predict who you'll be. you choose who you'll become.

[97]

i'm not afraid to tell you how i feel, i'll do that anyday. the only thing i'm afraid of is what you will say.

[96]

you change for two reasons: either you learn enough that you want to, or you've been hurt enough that you have to.

[95]

they never say to you, "what does his voice sound like? what games does he love best? does he collect butterflies?" instead, they demand, "how old is he? how many brothers has he? how much does he weigh? how much money does his father make?" only from these figures do they think they have learned anything about him.

[94]

when you're having a bad day, just remember that it's just one day and you have to have bad days to have great ones.

[93]

every girl needs a best friend to make her laugh even when she thinks she will never smile again.

[92]

a friend is someone you can do absolutly nothing with, & still have fun.

[91]

i held him close to me with my eyes closed, wondering if anything in my life had ever been this perfect, and knowing at the same time that it hadn't. i was in love, and the feeling was even more wonderful than i ever imagined it could be.

[90]

in the future everyone will be world famous for 15 minutes.

- andy warhol

[89]

sometimes, no matter how much faith we have, we lose people. but you never forget them, and sometimes, it's those memories that give us the strength to go on.

[88]

don't go looking for love that you see in the movies.

[87]

vanity was always my favorite sin. glamour was always my favorite weapon. pain was always my favorite pleasure. beauty was always my favorite crime. envy was always my favorite poison. love was always my favorite hate. fame was always my favorite motive.

[86]

and i hope that when you looked in her eyes, you saw my reflection.

[85]

and everytime i see a shooting star, i whisper your name.

[84]

only enemies speak the truth; friends and lovers lie endlessly.

[83]

there comes a point where you miss someone so much that you can hear their voice echo in your head. and you can hear the names that they used to call you, the words they used to tell you. you memorized their laugh, their smile, & their silly ways. you can also feel their arms around you & you don't want to let go even though you know it's just an illusion. everytime your phone rings, you smile because it's them that's calling. everytime you hear their name, your heart beats 100 times faster and somtimes, you can't even breathe. you knew that looking back on the tears would make you laugh, but you never knew that looking back on the laughs would also make you cry. all you want is to go back in time. not to the time that you first met, to the time that you were known as nothing, but strangers. but no matter what, you're in denial. you hide your feeling so no one would know. you put on a fake smile and don't let a single tear break through. you're so used to hiding your feelings that you don't even realize the pain you're causing for yourself. your thoughts becomes invisible. it's still there, but no ones knows. like a love letter you didn't slow. and you're hurting no one but yourself.

[82]

she didn't want tonight to end because for once, her unsteady world had a perfect ending.

[81]

find a heart that will love you at your worst and arms that will hold you at your weakest.

[80]

when someone dies, you don't get over it by forgetting; you get over it by remembering, and you are aware that no person is ever truly lost or gone once they have been in our life and loved us, as we have loved them.

[79]

you don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or their fancy car. you love them because they sing a song that only you can hear.

[78]

it's not being in love that makes me happy, it's who i'm in love with that does.

[76]

i like that you ramble when you're nervous, i like that i know that you ramble when you're nervous, and i like that i still make you nervous.

[75]

be loved but never love. attach but never combine. trip but never fall. to be broken it better than to be shattered. tell him of your strenth but never your past. be trustworthy but never trust. be cracked but never open.

[74]

don't hold my hand if you aren't willing to take everything that comes with it.

[73]

falling in love with you wasn't the plan. but when you held me in your arms something told me this is where i need to be.

[72]

she's the kind of girl you forget as soon as you meet. she is the crust on the bread; every face you have ever forgotten. she is the verse to that song on the radio, the forgettable. but broken hearts and backstabbing drama couldn't touch her; she's far beyond that.

[71]

the scariest thing in life is to wake up when you're old and realize you never really lived.

[70]

maybe what this can be explained as is just a bunch of falling hope. falling in front of your eyes like rain and that feeling in your chest, that breaking feeling, it's just the beginning. it will get much worse.

[69]

i hate how we don't talk for weeks but then all of a sudden you talk to me again and it is as if nothing has happened. and i slowly start falling for you.. all over again.

[68]

when you're lucky enough to love someone and have them love you back, it's a gift.

[67]

relationships aren't easy, so much comes with them. no one actually realizes how much trouble a relationship is until they're in one. yes, it may seem great at first, but are you still gonna feel that way when you realize you can't trust them or are fighting with them? are you gonna feel that way in good times and the bad. most likely, you aren't going to. but that's what makes a relationship so amazing. no matter how much you can hate that person, if it's true love it will always work out.

[66]

he whispered to her "the only way i could ever hurt you is by holding your hand too tight"

[65]

if you keep trying to be everything your not, you're going to miss out on everything you were supposed to be.

[64]

after a while you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul. you learn that love doesn't always mean learning and company doesn't always mean security, and you begin to learn that kisses aren't always considered contracts and presents aren't always considered promises. after a while you learn that every sunshine burns if you get too close. so plant your own garden and decorate your own soul instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers. you eventually learn that you really can endure, that you really are strong, and you really do have a purpose in life.

[63]

you could be everything i wanted if you just gave up on holding back.

[62]

he knew he made a mistake. you could see it in his face, everytime she walked into the room, he wished he hadn't done that to her.

[61]

there comes a point where you miss someone so much that you can hear their voice echo in your head.

[60]

i'm the kind of girl who can talk to a total stranger about anything and everything, but i can't tell my best friend how much i'm hurting. i can let people know that i'm young and not worry about it, but i can't tell them how much i miss being younger. i hate not being invited to parties only cause i feel so alone, and i can't understand how i don't have many friends. i'm the kind of girl that can be easy to fall for and the kind of girl who falls easily. i'm the kind of girl who can pick herself up and i can switch my feelings in a minute. there's only one thing that i know i can't do and that's believing that i'd ever end up with you.

[59]

wait for the guy who will let his arm fall asleep because you're too cute to move.

[58]

you don't die from a broken heart, you only wish you did.

[57]

chances are i'll never get a moment like this again, so here's everything i ever wanted to tell you. no one has ever gotten me like you. i've never found anyone who makes me laugh like you. you're the one person i can honestly see myself happy with. the definition of love to me is you.

[56]

sometimes pain becomes such a big part of your life that you expect it to always be there. cause you can't remember a time in your life when it wasn't. but then one day you feel something else, something that feels wrong only cause it's so unfamiliar. and in that moment, you realize you're happy.

- one tree hill

[55]

you only find a few people in this world, a few people who will tell you they love you and actually mean it with all their heart. don't forget those people who stood by you through it all, the special few that were there for you until the end.

[54]

the real lover is the man who can thrill you by kissing your forehead or smiling into your eyes or just staring into space.

[53]

dying is the most embarrassing thing that can ever happen to you, because someone's got to take care of all your details.

- andy warhol

[52]

sooner or later we all choose a path. sometimes you never look back, and sometimes life forces you too.

[51]

being together is more than just physical. it's understanding the other person, being there for them, talking for hours, making each others dreams come true.

it's being in love and not needing anything to make it come true.

[50]

there's more to life than loving yourself. you gotta learn to love somebody else.

[49]

the greatest challenge in life is finding someone who knows all your flaws, differences and mistakes. &; still loves you with everything they have.

[48]

i miss you when something really good happens, cause you're the one i want to share it with. i miss you when something is troubling me, cause you're the one who understands me so well. i miss you when i laugh and cry, cause i know that you're the one that makes my laughter grow & tears disappear. i miss you all the time but i miss you the most when i lie awake at night and think of all the wonderful times that we spent with eachother.

[47]

you'll forever be my hearts strongest weakness.

[46]

it's not about the amount of friends you have, it's about how many you can trust.

[45]

take chances, alot of them. because honestly no matter where you end up and with who, it always ends up the way it should be. your mistakes make you who you are. you learn and grow with each choice you make. everything is worth it. say how you feel, always be you, and be okay with it.

[44]

love is like a flower. once you pick it, it slowly dies.

[43]

there is one moment in life when you are with someone and you feel like the world has stopped and your life seems so perfect. make sure you never lose that person.

[42]

don't let somebody else create you, because once they do, they can totally destroy you.

[41]

you can't be old and wise if you were never young and crazy.

[40]

it's amazing. the things you realize when you lose someone. you get mad at yourself for not saying the things you could've a million times. you take for granted the days spent doing nothing when you could have been with them. anyone can be taken, at any time in our lives, but we always wait until they're gone to say the things we never had the courage to before.

[39]

if you can't laugh at yourself, life is going to seem a whole lot longer than you'd like.

- garden state

[38]

the greastest thing in life is finding something who knows all of your mistakes and weaknesses, and still finds you completely amazing.

[37]

i feel comfortable around you. when i was with you, i didn't have to be perfect. i didn't even have to try for perfect. you already knew all my secrets, the things i kept hidden from everyone else. so i was able to finally just be myself. which probably shouldn't have been such a big deal, but it was.

[36]

don't envy anybody. every person has something no one else has. develop that one thing in yourself, and make it outstanding.

[35]

life is full out secrets and lies, so when you get screwed over, don't act surprised.

[34]

an odd thing happens when we die, our senses vanish. taste, touch, smell and sound become a distant memory, but our sight? ah, our sight expands and we can suddenly see the world we left behind so clearly. of course most of what's visible to the dead could also be seen by the living, if they would only take the time to look.

- desperate housewives

[33]

it's not who you knew the longest, it's who never left your side.

[32]

no matter who broke your heart or how long it takes to heal, you'll never get through it without your friends.

[31]

you always deserve to be the most important person in somebody's life.

[30]

i used to think that love wasn't worth fighting for but then when i saw you, i was ready for war.

[29]

you can't control when you lose your heart. the only thing you can do is trust, trust that the person who has your heart realizes it's value.

- greys anatomy

[28]

maybe we are meant to meet the wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. maybe it is true that we don't know what we have until we lose it, but it is also true that we don't know what we have been missing until it arrives. giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. the happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.

[27]

the best things in life cannot be seen. that's why we close our eyes when we cry, kiss, and dream.

[26]

when you run from something, it only stays with you longer. when you fight something, it only makes it stronger.

[25]

things are never normal, i think we like it that way.. never knowing what might happen from one day to the next. i think that's why we can't ever let each other go.

[24]

nothing is as big as your first love.

[23]

the best boyfriend you'll have isn't the best looking, the funniest, or the richest. its the one that makes you feel gorgeous, hilarious, and like a million dollars. he makes sure you know he loves you.

[22]

i want you to accept that life is not perfect, that people are not perfect, and that there are all sorts of things in the world that disappoint us.

[21]

too many people get caught up in what could be instead of appreciating what is. don't fall into that trap; appreciate what you have and who you have. because the future can take it all away from you.

[20]

i want to be remembered as the girl who always smiled even when her heart was broken and the one who could always brighten up your day even if she couldn't brighten her own.

[19]

you're something between a dream and a miracle.

[18]

you are never given a wish without being given the power to make it come true.

[17]

goodbyes make you think. they make you realize who you had, what you've lost, &; what you've taken for granted.

[16]

sometimes when one person is missing, the whole world seems depopulated.

[15]

and no matter how many times i try to forget you, you always have a way of finding your way back to me.

[14]

when i look in your eyes, i don't want to look away. i smile at every word that comes out of your mouth, and when you smile back, i melt. sometimes i wonder what i would do without you, not understanding how i got by before. you wrap your hands around my waist and the whole world disappears. when our hands touch, it sends shivers up my spine. and when you lean in and your lips brush mine, i never want to let you go. i know i'm young but who says it can't be love?

[13]

prove that you are who you always thought you were, not who they said you had to be.

[12]

if this is what you want, i'm fine with that but please don't ever come back, you had your chance.

[11]

pretty is when he's looking at your face. hot is when he's looking at your body. beautiful is when he's looking at your soul.

[10]

people should fall in love with their eyes closed. just close your eyes. don't look and it's magic.

- andy warhol

[9]

you must always push the limits. because if you never fail, you will never succeed.

[8]

the best friends are the ones you don't have to talk to everyday, who understand why you didn't take their advice to not call him or why you keep going back to him after he breaks your heart, the ones who call you at 4 AM to let you know they're drunk, who listen when they've heard the same story a thousand times, the ones who call just to say hi, and whether you're dancing on the table or passed out drunk, they'll turn & say, hell yeah, that's my best friend.

[7]

the only person you need in your life is the one who proves to you that he needs you in his.

[6]

there's something about the look in your eyes, something i noticed when the light was just right. it reminded me that i was alive and it reminded me that you're so worth the fight.

[5]

missing someone is a part of loving them. if you're never apart, then you will never know how strong your love really is.

[4]

it's easy to turn a friendship into a love story but it's almost impossibly to turn a love story into a friendship.

[3]

it happens to everyone as they grow up; you find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that the people you've known forever don't see things the way you do. and so you keep the memories but find yourself moving on.

[2]

it's hard to wait around for something that you know won't ever happen. but it's a million times harder to stop when that thing is everything you want.

[1]

you just don't understand do you? everytime i talk to you it gets worse. the little butterflies, my stomach dropping, the spinning, the feeling like everything is all right in the world. these never stop. they keep coming back.

thats the risk you have to take if you change : that people youve been friends with wont like the new you .. but other people who do will come along.

why is it that my friends dont even bother to notice im dying inside? that my heart has been torn out and all they do i just live their lives like they always have? they dont even take the time to ask how i am or what im doing anymore .. everyone just seems to be slipping away & all i can do is wonder why. its a shame -- the people you thought were your 'best friends' get their own lives, & they dont even notice how yours has been torn apart.

sometimes you cannot believe what you see, you have to believe what you feel, & if youre ever going to have other people trust you, you must feel that you can trust them too -- even when youre in the dark. even when youre falling.
( tuesdays with morrie )

From the moment we enter this life we are in the flow of it. We measure it and we mock it, but we cannot defy it. We cannot even speed it up or slow it down. Or can we? Have we not each experienced the sensation that a beautiful moment seemed to pass quickly, and wished that we could make it linger? Or felt time slow on a dull day, and wished that we could speed things up a bit?

I'm that person who belongs neither
here nor there; just floating in between.

People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway. If you do good, people may accuse you of selfish motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you may win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable. Be honest and transparent anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. People who really want help may attack you if you help them. Help them anyway. Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt. Give the world your best anyway.

blasting the music won't make me forget
but for that short period of time; it will

The only way to accept an
insult is to ignore it.
If you can't ignore it, top it.
If you can't top it, laugh at it.
If you can't laugh at it,
you probably deserved it

When I look around I think this is good enough. And I try to laugh at whatever life brings because when I look down, I just miss all the good stuff and when I look up, I just trip over things.

What defines a best friend? What are the requirements to be a good best friend? How many hours a week does it entail? Stupid questions that have no answers. A best friend is not defined by how many times they talk on the phone, or how many hours they hang out together. It is not defined by how many sleepovers they gossip at, or how many inside jokes they have. There are no requirements or laws that state that a good best friend must hang out with them every weekend, or tell each other every little detail. A best friend is a matter of opinion. It is the person who has been there for you through everything, not just through the fun things, or the little things. It is the person that you call when you are at your absolute worst, it is the person who saves you when you didn't even notice that you needed saving, mostly it is the person who accepts you for who you are, & the person that you are becoming

people change. even the person you thought you knew the most changes. & even though it hurts to see them go, you have to move on, for the sweet memories are all you have, & things might never be the same. giving up doesn't always mean you are weak; sometimes it means that you are strong enough to let go. death is not the greatest loss in life. the greatest loss it what dies inside of us while we live. best friends are made through smiles & tears, & sometimes that fades away through miles & years. so easy to get lost inside a problem that seems so big at the time it's like a river that's so wide, it swallows you whole while you're sitting around thinking about what you can't change and worrying about all the wrong things, time's flying by, moving so fast you better make it count because you can't get it back. You're never prepared for the moment that changes your life. I think everyone has a certain part of their life where they truly wish they could freeze time. whether it was three years ago, today, or still to come, whether it was just a moment, a whole day, or a whole summer. everyone has a time in their life where they wish everything would just stop. the world would stop turning and people would stop changing. because to them, at that time, everything was perfect If you want to get to the top in life, you are going to have to take the stairs. We all want to fall in love. Why? Because that experience makes us feel completely alive, where every sense is heightened, and every emotion is magnified. Our everyday reality is shattered and we are flung into the heavens. It may only last a moment, an hour, or an afternoon, but that doesn't diminish its value, because we are left with memories that we treasure for the rest of our lives. And maybe it’s not about who you’re friends with, but how honest you are to your real friends. And maybe it’s not about what you look like, but how you think you look, and your attitude. And maybe it’s not about what life will bring you but how you handle all the things that come. Maybe I don't smile as much as her, & maybe I don't have as many friends as she does; but I'll bet you she hasn't gone through what I have. I'll bet she has never sat down on her stairs & just cried, cried her heart out because the whole world was caving in, and she just couldn't take it No one knows me as me, just as some girl who always tags along. I'm sorry I don't shine. Only those who wanted to know me actually know me. All my life all I've tried to do is impress people, make other people happy, help them, & be there for everyone. All I get in return is a broken heart. Everyone I've trusted & loved has hurt me; every single person I've dated has left me. Every guy I fallpromises me things & they never seem to keep their word. Every single one of them has made me cry. All the friends I've trusted in the past have stabbed me in the back on point or another. So who is there to trust now, or why should I believe anyone who says they won't hurt me? Why does this happen to me every time? What did I do? I want to know exactly what I did to deserve this when all I ever do is try to make others happy. for Aces up to the girls who have never been kissed. To the girls who get filled with jealousy when another girl kisses a cute boy. To the girls who aren't totally confident and can admit it. To the girls who aren't ashamed to state their faults and finally, to the girls who are afraid of change, and still try to change things. It's those moments when you drive around in a car full of friends around a town too small for you. Where you gasp for breath between each laugh. Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough. -Oprah Winfrey There is a huge difference between giving up and letting go. Giving up is sacrificing what was rightfully yours.... Letting go is forgetting what never was I wanan stay with my friends far after the sky turns dark. I wanna live a carefree life, just like my friends. I wanna sit in a crowded room, blasting music, and guzzling soda. I wanna lay in a big mess of people. I wanna watch my friends stuff their face with pizza, and beat eachother up in the snow for absolutely no reason. I wanna watch them spin, just to see who throws up first. I wanna laugh with my friends, and I wanna hold rabbits, and get my shirt full of hair. I wanna hang out in the woods, bulding my friends a house, because they decided to run away. I wanna stay in the house till dusk. I wanna live this weekend over again. ©Toughxcallquotes Imagine tearing up a meaningful letter from a friend, and then only looking at the seperate lines ('tidbits') that have been torn from from each other. Now that they aren't in context, they shine with their own emotion, expressing love or hate, or making you want to laugh or cry. Sometimes they appear to have no meaning at all...or do they? the love you take is equal to the love you make. Sometimes, I just wish someone would take the time to go past my sarcasm, my loud mouth, my smiling face, my grades & my remarks to see a part of me that i have never seen. don't ever let life put you down ; just know that you'll be you. at some point you will change, but life's not going to do that for you. you're going to have to seek & find how that works, but just don't let anyone stop you from doing what you need to do. if you keep trying to be everything you're not .. you're gonna miss out on everything you were supposed to be. In this moment, who we are is all we have. But maybe, that's all we need. You only find a few people in this world, a few people who will tell you they love you and actually mean it with all their heart. Don't forget those people who stood by you through it all, the special few that were there for you until the end. Too many people get caught up in what could be instead of appreciating what is. Don’t fall into that trap. Appreciate what you have & who you have because the future can take it all away from you. do you ever wake up from a really good dream & just try to get back to sleep? or you have the flu & promise yourself you'll appreciate normal so much more if you could just get back to it? that’s the way I feel. I just want things to go back t o t h e w a y t h e y w e r e . - one tree hill cheers to the girls -- screw the guys. we're sick of their shit & stupid lies. we don't need them, nope not us. good for a scam, but never to trust. so here's what we do, together we stand. we'll party it up with shots in each hand. alone in our beds, of course it might end. but we don't get dumped & we still have our f r i e n d s* If you have a hard life maybe its not because people want to make it tough. But because God knew you could handle it. I'm learning a lot this summer. Slowly, but I'm learning. I'm learning that boys really aren't everything. That materialistic things should truly be the least of my worries. I'm learning not to judge so quickly. To spend more time with my family. But most of all, I'm learning to keep my expectations low, of everyone, even the people I should count on the most. I'm learning to get used to his leaving and then coming back. I'm learning to live life. another summer coming to its end our days our numbered, it's too hard to pretend spending our hours buying paper & paste trying not to remember those clear summer days we left to waste
