I think sometimes,
When you fall too fast,
When you begin to love someone too much,
You start to brace yourself for the impact,
The plane crash
The train derailment
The pain that you will feel when they leave you
Because when you fall too hard
And when you love just a little too much
It never seems to work
The pain is unavoidable
And the worst part is
I think you know it
You know it from the very first moment
The first time you look into their eyes
When you first see their smile
You know
That eventually those eyes and that smile
Will no longer give you life
But be the demons that torture you inside when you want to sleep at 3am
Trying to forget every word he had ever said to you
You know
You just know
Yet you fall for it anyway

I'm losing sleep over a boy
I barely even know,
Stuck trying to breathe,
waiting for his name on my phone
Yet no matter all my hopes,
I still end up alone,
Waiting for a text
I may not ever get
So, tell me,
How do you like someone
you've barely even met

Success is more than just the completion of a set goal.
Success is when you can see someone you used to love and not feel like your heart is being ripped out of your chest,
Success is when you accept the fact that you can move on from someone without feeling like you need to curl into a ball and cry until you fall asleep,
Success is when you know that you may not have the person you want, but in the end it will work out for the best.
There are more than just successful ways of living,
And many of them revolve around success stories fought through the battle of love--the toughest and most difficult trials and errors one may ever face--
So yes, you successfully completed that assignment, and maybe even that paper
But you will also feel success when you see the boy with those beautiful blue eyes, and not feel like you are still drowning inside of them.

Sometimes I stand in the shower when I'm sad,
and I think, and maybe I hope,
that the hot scalding water will wash away more than just the days dirt from my body
maybe, just maybe, it can wash away the sadness
or the feelings of unwant,
or maybe even more,
the feelings of nothing at all
so there I stand,
and there I wait

Today my teacher said the four saddest words in the English language are
"What could have been"
I had to hold back a laugh,
A laugh so full of irony,
Because I've thought that every single second since I met you- and then once again when you left-
So with a little more than fire behind my eyes and pain in my chest,
I raised my hand to say
There are also 2 words that can be just as sad:
"What if?"

It's been a year and a half or so
More than enough time to forget you
But **** god **** I haven't forgotten a word
Not a word that was spoken that night
Not even a look that was exchanged
I remember every single piece
yet I doubt you remember my name
I'm tired of this
I'm getting so tired of you
But how do you move on from somebody that you barely even knew
