    That’s what I love about the ocean. No matter how beautiful it is, you must never underestimate its violence.

    two.
    What I’ve learned is not to change who you are, because eventually you are going to run out of things to become.

    three.
    Even something really beautiful can be broken sometimes.

    four.
    Everything was perfect, until you decided I wasn’t.

    five.
    Even though I complain about life and society, I still think it’s beautiful.

    six.
    People keep saying always follow your heart. But when your heart is broken in so many pieces. Tell me, which piece should you follow?

    seven.
    I just wanna run away. Not cause things are bad, or cause there’s something to run from.There’s just nothing in particular keeping me here.

    eight.
    You think you want to die, but in reality, you just want to be saved.

    nine.
    I guess you can say I’m complicated, but I’d rather be difficult than easy any day.

    ten.
    It was just one of those mornings where I sat up in bed and wondered what the fuck I’ve been doing all my life.

    eleven.
    I am absolutely terrified of the dark. But sometimes I like to walk around in it, just to feel invisible for a little bit.

    Yea, I’ve held it all together. But a night like this is begging me to fall apart.

    two.
    Life is too ironic to fully understand. It takes sadness to know what happiness is. Noise to appreciate silence. And absence to value presence.

    three.
    It doesn’t make sense to let go of something you had for so long, but it also doesn’t make sense to hold on when nothing’s there.

    four.
    I don’t know why we all hang on to something we know we’re better of letting go. It’s like we’re scared to lose what we don’t really have.
    Some of us say we’d rather have that then nothing at all, but the truth is ; to have it half way is harder then not having it all.

    five.
    You will never be younger than you are at this very moment.

    six.
    A person doesn’t have to be perfect to be exactly what you need.

    seven.
    There’s another thing to learn about tears – They can’t make somebody who doesn’t love you anymore love you again.

    Too many people spend money they haven’t earned, to buy things
    they don’t want,     to impress people they don’t like.

    two.
    Conceited people never get anywhere because they think they’re already there.

    three.
    It’s funny how the people who know the least about you always have the most to say.

    four.
    There will be two dates on your gravestone and everyone will read them.
    But the only thing that matters is the little dash between them.

  • one.
    I’m so tired of pretending everything is okay.
    My tears are starting to show and my smile is fading away.

    two.
    Appreciate what you do have instead
    of worrying about what you don’t.

    three.
    I sit & wonder about your whereabouts, while my own life
    is going nowhere. Sometimes I’ll wonder if I’ll ever get it
    right, if I’ll ever see you again, if it’s all one big joke… Maybe
    there really isn’t such a thing as fate. Maybe we live & we
    die, and that’s all there is to it. Maybe the outcome of our life
    really depends on how we choose to live it, not by praying
    and wishing for a sign to direct us. These moments count.
    And I realize I don’t ever wanna waste
    another one without you. I love you.

    four.
    I need to find new people out there. People who share the
    same thoughts and ideas as me. Mature, but immature, smart,
    funny people that I could trust. I want to have long talks about
    life with them over Starbucks coffee, and waste days reading
    books and watching movies together. People with good hearts
    and unique personalities. Maybe in college, when I’m outta here.

    five.
    The truth hurts but the lies are worse.

    six.
    You don’t know what goes on in anyone’s life but your
    own. And when you mess with one part of a person’s
    life, you’re not messing with just that part. Unfortunately,
    you can’t be that precise and selective. When you mess
    with one part of a person’s life, you’re messing with their entire life.

    seven.
    I hate how you sit there and act like you know me.
    Let’s get this straight.. you used to know me. You remember
    what happened with that situation? The girl you
    used to know, she left. Just like you did.

    eight.
    I guess I’m just a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside a bitch.

    nine.
    My only regret is that i couldn’t give you enough reasons to stay.

    ten.
    Behind every untrusting girl, is a boy who taught her to be that way.

    A relationship, I think, is like a shark. You know? It has to constantly move forward or it dies.

    two.
    even though I complain about life and society I still think it’s beautiful.

    three.
    You can’t hurt someone unless you mean something to them.

    four.
    It’s you. When all my dreams come true, the one I want next to me is you.

    five.
    If I really was a bitch, I’d make your life a living hell. But instead I’ll just sit back and watch you do it yourself.

    six.
    Things in life do not happen to you, they happen for you.

    seven.
    Most people stay walled up inside because they’re afraid of being hurt. They’re afraid to care too much for the fear that the other person doesn’t care at all.

    eight.
    Damaged people are dangerous, because they know they can survive.

    nine.
    Missing you isn’t the problem, it’s wondering if I’ll ever see you again that’s killing me.

April 24, 2010


  • one.
    I made a list of 43 things I don’t want in a guy.
    Thats a lot of negative qualities.
    Ones I found in you.

    two.
    I just want to forget about you. I wish I could be friends with you, but every time I hear your name, I still feel a little something that I can’t let go of.

    three.
    The bad thing about a girl with a broken heart is that she starts to hand out the pieces to anyone who comes around.

    four.
    It’s easiest when I don’t see him, I won’t deny that. But I just want to be able to see him without it hurting. I don’t want him out of my life forever. I don’t want to forget about him. I don’t want him to forget me. I really, really don’t.

    five.
    People hold on to things because they fear nothing that great will ever happen to them again.

    six.
    Every day I wake, I tell myself a little harmless lie: The whole world is mine.

    seven.
    Rock bottom is a good solid ground and a dead end street is just a good place to turn around.

    eight.
    Expect the best, be prepared for the worst, fuck what others think, and do your own thing.

    nine.
    Most of the time, I was a shy kid and I was afraid what I said sounded stupid, so I hardly ever said anything. I was the third wheel. Fifth wheel? I was the fucking wheel you didn’t really need, but I still hung around. I thought maybe my silence would one day impress somebody. As of yet, it hadn’t done much for me.

    ten.
    I hate how you think you know me. You don’t. Sure, I let down my walls and let people in, but what’s behind the wallpaper, you’ll never know.

    eleven.
    Him: Why do you give me advice about girls that aren’t you?
    Her: Because I learned a while ago that you can’t force someone to want to be with you, and that if you’re stuck being just friends with them, then that sucks, but being friends with them, especially when the friendship is as good as the one I think we have here, it’s better than not having them in your life at all.

  • one.
    Thats the way it is with life, some of the most beautiful days come completely by chance. But even the most beautiful days have their sunsets.

    two.
    I hate how everyone compares love to Romeo and Juliet. Did anyone ever read that play? The two met for a few minutes, started getting it on a few hours later on a balcony. They married three days later. Three days! Keep in mind they hardly spoke then. They got married, did the big deed, and long story short they died. They were lust. I bet Juliet didn’t even know Romeo’s favorite color, much less his birthday. I don’t want a relationship like that. I want one where I know everything about him, one that I know is more important than looks.

    three.
    No one is afraid of heights, they are afraid of the fall. No one afraid to play, they are afraid to lose. No one is afraid of the dark, they’re afraid of what’s in it. No one is afraid to say “i love you,” they are afraid of the response.

    four.
    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 your everything. Life is too short to be anything but happy. You have to take the good with the bad. Love what you got. Always remember what you had. Forgive, but don’t forget. Learn from your mistakes but never regret. People change and things go wrong, But always remember that life goes on.

    five.
    I myself am made entirely of flaws, stitched together with good intentions.

    six.
    Sometimes skulls are thick. 
    Sometimes hearts are vacant. 
    Sometimes words don’t work.

    seven.
    I am the kind of girl who enjoys the chase.
    I get a thrill when it comes to winning someone
    over and making them fall in love with me. Then,
    when rough times start to emerge, I run off kicking
    and screaming. I analyzed my actions once, and
    came to the conclusion that I’m afraid of getting too
    close to someone because I’m scared to get hurt.
    When someone takes on step forward, I take three
    steps back. I’ve done this my whole life. It is my
    greatest downfall, the reason I have lost so many.

    eight.
    it’s not a lie if you believe it & it’s not a mistake if you always repeat it.

    nine.
    i’m afraid to tell people what i want in life, because i know i’ll never get it.

    ten.
    “A wise girl kisses but doesn’t love, listens but doesn’t believe, and leaves before she is left.”
    - Marilyn Monroe.

    eleven.
    Two of the hardest tests in life: The patience to wait for the right moment and the courage to accept that you’ve waited for nothing.

    twelve.
    I like dead end signs. they’re kind, they at least have the decency
     to let you know you’re going nowhere.

    thirteen.
    I guess to some extent, you get used to being alone. you get used to not expecting
    phone calls and having nothing to do at night. You don’t expect to turn around to open
    arms any longer. The small sounds of him have been replaced by silence. your thoughts
     echo through your head, with no one to share them with. All in all, being alone isn’t
    terrible, it just hurts like hell.

    fourteen.
    Move on; he’s just a chapter in the past.
    Don’t close the book, just turn the page.

    fifteen.
    All I can say is that I hope our separate paths intersect again one day.

    sixteen.
    Mathematics may not teach us to inhale oxygen & exhale carbon dioxide or
     to love a friend & forgive an enemy, but it gives us every reason to hope that
    every problem has a solution.


  • one.
    A few times in my life I’ve had moments of absolute clarity. When, for a few brief seconds, the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think. And things seem so sharp, and the world seems so fresh. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I have lived for these moments. They pull me back to the present, and I realize that everything is exactly the way it was meant to be.

    two.
    I like the druggy downtown kids who spray paint walls and trains. I like their lack of training, their primitive technique. I think sometimes it hurts you when you stay too long in school. I think sometimes it hurts you when you’re afraid to be called a fool.

    three.
    The thing about life that I’ve learned is that you’re going to get hurt. You’re going to have emotional nights and cry yourself to sleep for hours. You’re going to suffer some kind of heartbreak, some kind of loss. But you will also have those moments where you heal. Those moments are the best. You feel like you smile for the first time again. You feel like you’re alive again. Life just kind of restarts.

    four.
    this is why you should never, ever get your hopes up.
    this is why you should see the glass as half empty.
    so when the whole thing spills, you aren’t as devastated.

    five.
    “if i tell you i love you, can i keep you forever?”

    six.
    It’s not that i’m mad at you;
     It’s just that I wished & hoped so hard
    that you could be the one thing I could truly count on.

    seven.
    The truth is,
    everyone is going to hurt you.
    you just have to find the ones worth suffering for.

    eight.
    If someone can’t stop doing things that you don’t want them to do, it only means that they love those things more than they love you.  

    nine.
    Sometimes i want to be one of those girls who nothing seems to upset them. But when i think about it, they’ve still got a lot of growing up to do.  

    ten.
    You know he loves you when he doesn’t have to unbutton your shirt to see your heart.  

    eleven.
    Don’t make anyone your everything because once they’re gone, you have nothing.  

    twelve.
    People hold on to things because they fear nothing that great will ever happen to them again.  

    thirteen.
    Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe, you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be.

April 17, 2010


  • one.
    Do you want to know the truth? I’m scared, okay? I’m terrified to get too close
    to you because I don’t want to get my heart broken. I’m afraid that if we take this
    further, I’m just going to get hurt and to be honest, I don’t think I could take that.

    two.
    When you judge someone, you don’t define them. You define yourself.

    three.
    It’s like once you’ve been hurt, you’re so scared to get attached again. Like, you
    have this fear that every person you start to like is going to break your heart.
    She wanted something else, something different, and something more. Passion and
    romance perhaps or maybe quiet conversations in candlelit rooms, or perhaps
    something as simple as not being second best.

    four.
    I have strict rules about thinking about you. I can’t – ever. I can’t think of your name,
    or how you look when you’re happy, or the sound of your laugh.
    I can’t do it. Because when I do, I fall apart.

    five.
    I’m a lover and a fighter. I get angry easily, but I’m working on it. I party, sleep, and
    think too much, but I get my shit done. I have a weakness for sweet talkers, but I’m
    learning and enforcing my boundaries. I don’t let many people in, but once they’re in,
    they’re there forever. I’m strong and independent and I’ve been broken, but never shattered.

    six.
    Find a great song, whether it’s disco, or pop, or punk, or whatever. Just turn up your stereo
    as high as it goes and dance. And if you have to, keep dancing until you
    lose yourself, or until you find yourself again.

    seven.
    here’s to the kids. the kids who would rather spend their night with a bottle of coke & patrick or sonny playing on their headphones than go to some vomit-stained high school party. here’s to the kids whose 11:11 wish was wasted on one person who will never be there for them. here’s to the kids whose idea of a good night is sitting on the hood of a car, watching the stars. here’s to the kids who never were too good at life, but still were wicked cool. here’s to the kids who listened to Fall Out Boy and Hawthorne Heights before they were on mtv..and blame mtv for ruining their life. here’s to the kids who care more about the music than the haircuts. here’s to the kids who have crushes on a stupid lush. here’s to the kids who hum “a little less 16 candles, a little more touch me” when they’re stuck home, dateless, on a saturday night. here’s to the kids who have ever had a broken heart from someone who didn’t even know they existed. here’s to the kids who have read The Perks of Being a Wallflower & didn’t feel so alone after doing so. here’s to the kids who spend their days in photo-booths with their best friend(s). here’s to the kids who are straight up smartasses & just don’t care. here’s to the kids who speak their mind. here’s to the kids who consider screamo their lullaby for going to sleep. here’s to the kids who second guess themselves on everything they do. here’s to the kids who will never have 100 percent confidence in anything they do, and to the kids who are okay with that. here’s to the kids. this one’s not for the kids, who always get what they want, but for the ones who never had it at all. it’s not for the ones who never got caught, but for the ones who always try and fall. this one’s for the kids who didn’t make it, we were the kids who never made it. the overcast girls and the underdog boys. not for the kids who had all their joys. this one’s for the kids who never faked it. we’re the kids who didn’t make it. they say “breaking hearts is what we do best,” and, “we’ll make your heart be ripped of your chest.” the only heart that i broke was mine, when i got my hopes up too too high. we were the kids who didn’t make it. we are the kids who never made it.

    eight.
    Shoulda, coulda, woulda. It’s so easy in the past tense.

    nine.
    I’d swim the ocean for you, but you wouldn’t step in a puddle for me.

    ten.
    Don’t ever lose yourself in someone cause when you lose them, you’re going to be lost when you need yourself the most.

    eleven.
    How does it feel to know that you were the one that made me give up on love?

    twelve.
    The real reason music matters so much
    to people is simple; it won’t ever let you down.

    thirteen.
    one day, you’ll crash into the wall you created.

    fourteen.
    As her phone lights up, so does her smile.

    fifteen.
    I saw him staring at me. Not glancing, but blatantly staring.
    And I wondered if he was staring at the wreckage he created.
    Or if maybe, just maybe, he regretted hurting me in the first place.

    sixteen.
    Heres to the kids who’s 11:11 wish was wasted on the one person who will never be there for them.

    seventeen.
    I wish my mom could have told me the same thing about
    guys that she did about bikes. “Sooner or later, you’re gonna fall and get hurt.”

    eighteen.
    When I like a person, I actually like them.
    It’s not one of those three day crush type things.
    It is hardcore, can’t get my mind off them, thing.
    And that’s why I haven’t liked all that many people.
    But I eventually get over them when I find someone
    new. But with him, no matter who I find, I can’t
    erase him. He’s going to be the one I’ll always like.

    nineteen.
    Sometimes you just have to let them win,
    because losing the argument is easier than losing them.

    twenty.
    After a while, you learn the difference
    between holding hands & falling in love.
    You begin to learn that kisses don’t always mean something
    and promises can be broken just a quickly as they are made
    and sometimes goodbyes really are forever.
