holy cow, it's been MONTHS!

whenever i hear your name come up in conversation, i can't help but smile.

[002]

do not suffer for love, beg for love, or look for love...
just do what you love and you will find someone who loves the same thing.

[003]

i don't think people want to see perfection or arrogance. they want to see the dorky side of you, the side where you don't lie to sound cool. they want someone comfortable to be around, not someone who will judge them. if they're looking for perfection, they're looking for a tropy, not a person. true love doesn't require people to be anyone but themselves.

[004]

i miss you.
you and your stupid wise cracks.
and the way you tease me for twirling my hair.
i miss the way you'd touch my hair.
you'd make me laugh like no one i know...
you're the funniest person.
you made me find a new way to look at life,
and the people in it.
i miss the way you'd make me feel like somebody.
i can honestly say i loved you.
i miss you.

a lot of times you have to separate yourself from the people who are still in that place. hopefully when they come out of it, you can start a friendship with them. you have to cut out the people who are not good for your life.

second chances they don't ever matter. people never change. once a whore, you're nothing more. i'm sorry that'll never change.

i'm friends with alot of guys.
i have girlfriends too,
but for the most part i'm friends with guys,
because girls are kind of backstabbers.

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

Baby just look at us, all this time and we're still in love
Something like this just don't exist between a
Backwoods boy and a fairytale princess
People said it would never work out
But living dreams, we shattered all doubts
Feels good to prove 'em wrong
Livin' our love song
[[*jasonmichaelcaroll*]]

Love's not an easy thing
Always somebody gets hurt
I know you were meant for me, even though she saw you first
But deal with her honestly
I won't let you cheat with me
I guess you never knew
What you put yourself into

Well hey
So much I need to say
Been lonely since the day
The day you went away
So sad but true
For me there's only you
Been crying since the day
The day you went away

Your voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know you're unlike any other?
You'll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of all the colors
I don't wanna ever love another
You'll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder

Ignoring what we've felt,
Overlooking what we've done,
No awkward silences, no hiding any truths
Ignoring what we've felt,
Overlooking what we've done,
What do you say?
This is probably the best,
not to mention the worst idea,
that I have ever had.
We say what we feel,
Then we stop ourselves,
And just walk away.
Never looking back,
Loving every second of it,
We just walk away.
[[*chiodos*]]

nobody understands how much i miss you. miss
how much we used to talk and miss all the things
we used to do. i try not to admit it to myself that
i still feel this way. Nobody knows that i still wake
up thinkin of you each day... i still think of you n
i really do miss you. I would give up everything i
have to be everything that we’re not

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

there was a time when you were friends with all the kids in your class, but as time progresses, the kids that take your age bracket also take your state of mind.

your choice is black or white
not a shade of gray
because in love
there is no such thing as halfway
devotion can't be swayed
emotions can't be torn
i'd rather be hot or cold
instead of luke warm

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.

don't ever complain about growing old
so many people never get the chance
don't ever complain that you're too young
many people never experienced their youth

if we discovered that we only had five minutes left to say what we wanted to say, every phone booth, every cell phone would be occupied by people calling others to stammer that they love them

we wonder why black and white pictures capture our soul. i think it's because without color, we aren't drawn to the makeup, and the color of our eyes, or our hair, or how tan our skin is. black and white captures the innocence on one's face and the hurt they've gone through to feel vulnerability. the glow we see comes from the inside. brightening our eyes, our skin, and our smile.

too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring... all of which have the potential to turn a life around.

maybe he's starting to see the real girl. the one behind an ambitious, quiet, and self-conscious girl. the one who loves her friends more than life itself. and laughs at pretty much everything... because she can. and that's what she thinks life is all about, having the time of your life.
