| ---------------------------------------- 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 high school, maybe it's life, or maybe this is just what growing up is. ------------------------------------------------- There was a girl I used to know, but I haven't seen her in a while. she was beautiful, smart, confident, free-spirited. she could turn an uneasy silence into a conversation. she could turn tears into laughter, her bright eyes could light up a room & give comfort & hope. she could make you smile just like that, & she could even make you cry, just like that. she felt like she could change the world, paint it different colors. she could conquer anything. she believed in fairy tales, dreams, & love. until that day, when he took his love away. her smiled faded & turned to tears, & now that the tears have run dry she feels empty. lonely, even though she's not alone. her pride has faded, her hope seems lost. she doubts herself, no longer feels worthy or beautiful. now the silence is her own. her eyes have dulled, her laugh is forever changed. the colors she tries to paint are now dried up & gray. her dreams have disappeared, her fairy tale is just a memory that's long gone. all because he took his love away. I miss that girl, I wonder if she'll ever be the same? ------------------------------------------------- i love sleep. my life has this tendency to fall apart when i'm awake ------------------------------------------------- yeah... </3 |
