The thought of you around always seems to give me a sky-rocketing adrenaline rush. I don't know how, but you just do. Something about you, that I haven't been able to figure out even after all these years. And it still feels like that night in May three years ago, when I realized just how much you meant to me. And I don't think this feeling will ever change. It hurts in a way, just knowing that you've become this dream to me, a dream that I can't feel, can't touch, can't be with. You're far away now but it seems as if you're never going to roam anywhere else far from my heart, even if you aren't here with me. Maybe I love you, maybe this is some cow shit. But you've taken me this far, farther than any other temporary and official love I've had. And it's funny, because you had done more impact even if we drew our line far from being official. We were never official and I don't think we'll ever be, but boy, do you make me lose myself just at the thought of you. Or that smile. Or that everything about you, really.

Because he has been a major part of your life, of course you'll miss him; it's perfectly normal. It's like getting a tooth pulled out; after the dentist pulls it out you're relieved. But how many times does your tongue run itself over the spot where the tooth once was? Probably a hundred times a day. Just because it was hurting you does not mean you don't notice it. It leaves a gap, and sometimes you see yourself missing it terribly. It's going to take awhile, but it takes time. Should you have kept the tooth? No, because it was causing you pain. Pulling the tooth was the right decision, but it's going to hurt.

This quote pertains to you.

"Why am I attracted to a person I know isn't good?"
"Because you're hoping you're wrong and every time they do something that tells you they're no good you ignore it and every time they come through and surprise you they win you over and you lose that argument with yourself that they're not for you"-The Holiday

They say that love is blind. No, Love makes you blind to all that is wrong with the relationship.

It's kind of like he's one of those songs that goes around and around in your head, and you just can't get it out.

I'm always wondering if he'll return. Sometimes I pray that he doesn't. And sometimes I hope he will. I wish on falling stars and eyelashes. Absence isn't solid the way death is. It's fluid, like language. And it hurts so much.. so, so much.

I really hope you’ve found happiness & if you’re ever in need of anything, like someone to love you, don’t hesitate to call me.

Something always brings me back to you; it never takes too long.

Have you just, not been able to get someone out of your head? I mean you know it's over, but I walk around with this pit in my stomach and everyone tells me I'll get over it. All I'm asking is when.

You and I are a story that never gets told.

How I wish you could see the potential, the potential of you and me. It’s like a book elegantly bound. But in a language that you can’t read, just yet.

I could see you standing with him he ain't holdin' your hand like he should. He ain't listenin 'to a word you say, he doesn't look at you the way i would. I should steal you away. I've been wondering are you looking at me thinking how it might be, if you were mine. Girl it drives me crazy, he don't know what he's got, I've been fightin' so hard not to cross the line. I should steal you away, I should steal you away, in the middle of the night come take your heart, I should steal you away.

And no matter how much I try to forget that it had happened, it will have never not happened.

I saw a whole other future. I can’t stop seeing it. I can’t leave. I can’t stay.
And I still remember, the sound of your voice. Although your silence, still rings so clear.

The only reason I hate you now is because I loved you then.

I may not be the one you love today, but I’ll let you go for now, hoping that one day you’ll fly back to me because I think you’re worth the wait.

It's hard when you know you shouldn't hold on, and yet you're too in love to let go.

Hey, did you hear about the one that got away, they say he looked left,
she turned right-meant to be together but not that night,
it's when fates running late, we tend to make mistakes,
we go round and round from love to love
it's either way too much or not enough

I wonder what you look like, under your t-shirt. I wonder what you sound like, when you’re not wearing words. I wonder what we have, when we’re not pretending.

It's hard when you know you shouldn't hold on, and yet you're too in love to let go.

But I wouldn't touch you. Put my hands on your hips. It would be too much to
place my lips on your lips.

The closer I get to you, the harder it is to stay. I’m right outside your window, with a million reasons why I can’t walk away.

Even if you think the flame has died, there's at least one lyric that'll hit that last hot spot, and then you'll find yourself as f*ed as you were the day you lied and said you never wanted to see her again.

I see something in him that is as young as me. Do certain events in our lives leave a permanent mark, freezing a piece of us in time, and that becomes a touchstone that we measure the rest of our lives against?

Even more, I had never meant to love him. One thing I truly knew - knew it in the pit of my stomach, in the center of my bones, knew it from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet, knew it deep in my empty chest - was how love gave someone the power to break you.

No love is bigger than the one which is given away - torn apart - and yet still, it remains.

You've always been this possibility for me. This wonderful possibility, but it's just not right. And I'm so sorry. I need you to know that you're the man I want to want.

Was I ever truly over him? At one time I was sure that the answer was yes. But if seeing him again- and merely touching his hand- could peel back so many layers of my heart, then did I ever stop loving him the way you're supposed to stop loving everyone but the one you're with?

My heart is on my sleeve and that's where it'll stay until the day you're brave enough to walk my way and tell me the things you were too stubborn to say.

Maybe I'm scared, scared that the person that has meant so much to me for so long, might actually be falling out of my grasp... and there's nothing I can do to stop him.

No one will ever love you as much as I do.

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

So many thoughts I can't get out of my head. I try to live without you, but every time I do, I feel dead. I know what's best for me, but I want you instead.

You were what I wanted.

Maybe in five or ten,
yours and mine will meet again-
Straighten this whole thing out.
Maybe then honesty need not be feared,
as a friend or an enemy.
But this is the distance,
and this is my gameface.

I love you, but I love love more, and I don't want to be in it alone.

It's over, look out below
I'm wasted, I still taste it
Yeah it's so hard to let go
So breathe in now, and breathe it out.

And it's hard. It's much harder than I thought it would be, but there's more good than bad. And you don't just give up.

If I ever admit it to him, if I ever tell him how I felt for all those months. It won't be for a long time, it'll be after he's found someone, and after I've found someone. It'll be discreet and brisk, casual conversation, the words will just pop off the screen or out of my mouth and they'll just stand there in the air and wait for a response that will never come. The question that will go unanswered is did he feel the same?

And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet. As I sit there applauding from a front-row seat, When somebody breaks your heart, Like you, like you broke mine.

If you knew how bad you made me feel, you'd never do a thing like this again.
If this is just a game you're playin', I don't think I'll make it to the end.

When you go, I'll let you be, But you're killing everything in me.

How she'd be soothed how she'd be saved if he could see,
She needs to be held in his arms to be free. But everything happens for reasons that she will never understand.

Nostalgia for what we have lost is more bearable than nostalgia for what we have never had.

It's like he is driving a car, okay and I just wanna be in the passenger seat, but he's locked the door and I have to hold onto the bumper.You know, I'm not even asking for him to open the door for me, just leave it unlocked and say come in., but no he didnt do that, so I'm hanging on to the bumper and life goes on and the car goes on and I get really badly bruised and am hitting potholes and it hurts, I mean it hurts and yesterday I had to let go of the bumper because it hurts too much.... it hurts too much.

I'm trying to teach my heart to hate you. But it ain't workin' right.

Well it's been almost 3 years to the moment
When i finally realized it was over
And I knew that love wasn't good enough
Of a reason for me to stay.

This is my confession: not a day goes by where you don't cross my mind.

It's days like these
That make me feel
Like I want to bleed through my heart again
It's days like these
That make me feel
Like I might as well
Be on my own again

That face was tearing holes in me.

I never really wanted you to go. So many things you should have known, I guess for me there's just no hope.

I'm not scared of losing him because, let's be honest here, I never had him to begin with. I'm just scared of living the rest of my life knowing I didn't tell him how I felt, wondering if he felt the same way. Rejection says I tried, regret leaves me with nothing but 'what if's' for the rest of my life.

It's just... you never really know whats going on inside somebody- do you? you think if you care about them- you know. but you never really do.

I can see, it's no mystery. It's so clear to me: what we had is all history.

I saw you today and realized how far apart we've grown. I know I should talk to you and ask you how you've been doing , and I really wish that i could , but it's just occurred to me that we're strangers now . You don't know me anymore, much less want to. It's okay that you've moved on . I know that everything is different now, I've been staying strong.

Tell me you're not okay And you needed me all along.

If you call my name out loud
Do you suppose that I would come running
Do you suppose I'd come at all?
I suppose I would.

And I'm, sharing a drink with a memory, and a laugh with an empty seat. Do you still look the same? Will you still look at me the same? And I'd rather be fighting with you than sleeping here next to her.

And if you and I never become an us I want to be your biggest regret.

The time that is passing between us, the memories that are leaving us, the feelings that we once had for each other seems to be fading oh so fast, I wish it would slow down.

I can't figure out what's worse. Remembering the memories, or trying to and realizing that they're so far away and not being able to remember them.

Piece by piece and bit by bit.
I'll break this down for you real slow.
But I can't whisper all of this.
And I can't seem to let this go.

I always thought if he could just get it together, grow up - maybe we could do it. Maybe we could really be a family, in the stupid, traditional 'Dan Quayle, golden retriever, grow old together, wear matching jogging suits' kind of way. And then he did get it together - he became that guy. . . and he gets to be that guy with her.

And the truth is, I need you more than I've ever needed anyone.

Lets cause a scene and yell at each other and forget that we were once in love.

We're moving forward but holding ourselves back.

I hate this feeling. The whole I need you to breathe feeling. . . it's so overrated.

I had gone so far out on a limb with my feelings but I didn't realize I was standing out there alone.

If I say who I know it just goes to show
You need me less than I need you
Take it from me we don't give sympathy
You can trust me trust nobody
But I said you and me we don't have honesty
The things we don't want to speak
I'll try to get out but I never will

I'm punch-drunk and lovesick, My head weighs down with the memory of you, and Baby I can't take this anymore.

I thought I knew what love was
What did I know?
Those days are gone forever
I should just let them go.

Right Now You're The Only Reason I Cant Sleep Through The Night.

But love isn't something that can be turned on and off, and believe me I wish it could, because love is the last emotion that I want to feel for you right now.

So just because i finally got over you, doesn't mean there aren't days it all comes rushing back.

She was sad; But it was a hopeful kind of sad. The kind of sad that just takes time.

I can't see how
The way that you leave me alone makes us close
I must be out of touch
I won't ask you
To give up on the things that seem to keep you gone
But I can be gone too.

Someday being with him will be a distant memory. This fact makes me sad too. It's like when someone dies, the initial stages of grief seem to be the worst. But in some ways, it's sadder as time goes by and you consider how much they've missed in your life.

And I lied to myself, and said it was for the best.

Maybe it's for the best that we're not together, But somehow, it doesn't feel that way.

My heart was racing like a sprinter that tripped and fell.

Yes, I was infatuated with you;
i am still
no one has ever heightened such a keen capacity of physical sensation in me
I cut you out because I couldn't stand being a passing fancy
before I give my body,
I must give my thoughts,
my mind, my dreams
and you weren't having any of those

He does something to me, that boy. Every time.

You’re over me? When were you…under me?

I think I'd rather misbehave.

Thursday, December 2, 2010

And sometimes your heart takes you to places that can never lead to a happy ending.

One day I just realized he was gone for good -- and it was okay.

Tell me where you are tonight, and is everything alright?
Do you remember what I said, while she's sleeping in your bed?
Tell me now you smile hard, cause I don't smile much so far.

You might think of me as just some girl, but I want you to know That I am that one girl who took one look and fell harder for you Then I've ever fallen for anyone in my life.

Just an old love song,
just the mention of your name,
my heart breaks in two again.
I guess some things never change.

I would have loved you anyway.

I'd like to believe that one day I'll wake up and not miss him anymore, I'll finally understand that when he broke my heart it was for a reason, one I just don't understand yet, But when I do I'll know that he messed up and not me.

Every scar you have tells a story, the times you fell off your bike, the time you scraped your arm while climbing that tree or the time...he broke your heart.

Getting over you was the hardest thing I've ever had to do, and I don't let myself think about you.

You move on, because there's nothing else you can do.

You can still put a sparkle in my eye and a pain in my heart.

Sometimes the time just slips away, and you're left with yesterday, left with the memories.

Look at how much we've grown, look how fast the time has flown.

Even though I've "stopped liking you", every time someone mentions your name my head turns right toward them. Its like every time I hear it, I think of all that we could have had, and all that could have happened that didn't.

I’m the only one his smile means the world to. I don’t even get to talk to him anymore...much less see him smile.

So as of right now, I know what's best for me. And that's to get over him, even though I can't. My life is still lingering over every drop of love he has ever given me.

Getting over you made me realize how much I miss you.

Here and now, will we ever be again?
'cause i have found - all that shimmers in this world
is sure to fade away again.

A million words would not bring you back, I know because I've tried. Neither would a million tears, I know because I've cried.

Do you ever think about me?
Do you every cry yourself to sleep?
In the middle of the night while you're awake,
Are you calling out to me?

Everyday I miss the you that I used to know.. before you let me down, before I let you go.

Isn't it funny how you can think you're completely over someone but if you drive past his house, stumble upon a meaningful song you both shared, or even get a glance of him on the street....just in an instant, it can change all that. And you start to remember the pain. And that hollow space is feeling more and more like the Grand Canyon with every second that goes by. But you bury these feelings deep down, so deep that you're sure no one will be able to tell. To the outside world, you smile and act like nothing is wrong or will ever be. Everything's just perfect. For that split second that you've locked eyes, a tiny whisper, say 'make this last forever, only and just this moment forever and ever'. But after a second or so, you go along your own merry way, all the while home realizing how much you do miss him, how much you still love him...and it sticks with you for days, weeks, maybe months, until fate decides to hand you another one of those unexpected moments.

I want to be able to look at you and not be hurt by you.

I never thought I would see the day you no longer had control of me.

I just have one favor to ask of you...remember me.

I used to wait for you every day, outside your class, by the phone, then one day I got tired of waiting and hoped you would wait for me, but you didnt. You just let me walk away without a fight... that's what hurts the most, I knew I would have waited and fought for you forever.

If your love for someone is true, then that person will always come back to you.

I live on a little planet called reality, where things like that don't happen.

I use to feel that by letting go, I was just giving up and wasted all that time. But now I realize how much I'll lose if I just keep holding on to something that never was, and will never be mine.

My world crumbles, everything falls around me and I stand alone, I cry alone, I search alone for something I can never find. But this still doesnt compare to what it felt like to lose you.

Most of the time I think I'm over you, but then there are some days...

Fate brought us together, Fate split us up.

Maybe you can look back and say, "Wow … that girl really did love me."

In this weird way…I know you miss me. Not because of what we did or what we said but for what we didn’t have to say. All the times we "just knew." I miss you too and the sad thing is I know you'll never find someone who cares for you as much as me.

If you asked me how I'm doing, I'd say just fine. But the truth is baby, if you could read my mind...

For all sad words of toungue and pen, the saddest are those "that might have been."

There are some hurts that you never completely get over. And you think time will diminish their presence and to a degree...it does. But it still hurts, because, well...hurt hurts.

I wouldn't change the past for anything. I wouldn't change the way I felt, the things I did, and what I said. I wouldn't change who I was, and what you meant to me. The only thing I would change was how you felt back.

I've accepted the fact 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 no matter how happy I am otherwise... no matter how long its been.

I don't understand exactly what you don't see, if you need someone to love you… there's always me.

Mentally, I have convinced myself that I am over him. I could stand right next to him and see him as just another guy. But emotionally… I still see him as the only one for me.

I'll always love you. Even if time finds me somebody new, you were my first love. From the first kiss to the last tear.

He might not be the one for me, but he is the only one who can ever make me feel this way.

I can believe that maybe now we aren't meant to be, and a little later on we will be, only because it is impossible for me to believe that I could have these kinds of feelings after so long for someone that wasn't supposed to be in my life forever.

Never let a guy know how much you love him, the more they know, the more they'll hurt you.

I've come to know that when I saw you, I should've ran away.

And I guess thats why they call it the blues, time on my hands, could be time spent with you.

And when you begin to miss me, dont forget it was you who let me go.

I can put away the pictures, I can put the dreams aside, but I can't seem to get you out of my mind.

A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out that in the end it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.

Sometimes I feel there's a hole inside of me; An emptiness that at times seems to burn…I have this dream of being whole. Not going to bed each night wanting. But still sometimes, when the wind is warm or the crickets sing, I dream of a love that even time will lie down and be still for. I just want someone to love me and I want to be seen.

If you don't fall in love, you can't get hurt...but it sure is lonely all by yourself.

Every road I had to take, every time my heart would break, it was just something that I had to get through...

I have realized there isn't a limit to how much or how often you can get hurt.

This time it's over, I'm keeping my heart.

So from now on, when you think of me, just remember that I could've been the best thing you ever had.

He's gonna miss me.. when all the while I am missing him back.

She's had eighteen years to get ready for this day. She should be past the tears, she cried some anyway.. oh, letting go, there's nothing in her way now, there's room enough to fly.. and even though, she's spent her whole life waiting, its never easy: Letting Go.
