The simple thing I love about a book isn’t the words, nor the story. It’s the realization that comes along with it. Yes it ,might be a fairy tale, and most things aren’t happily ever after in today's world. An argument here, and few tears there. This one little story made me realize something no other book really said.

Love isn’t smiling because they made you happy with a silly joke. Nor is it feeling as if your heart might beat out of your chest after a few sweet words someone said. Love is wiping their tears and snot away when you should be somewhere else, but you're not because they need you. Love is diving head first into trouble without a second thought. Even though you might end up hurt in the end. Love isn’t a simple smile, a rose blush of the cheeks, nor is it the extra beat of your heart. It’s so much more…

I also learned something about myself. I’m not the words others speak. From friends to family. They all don’t know me. I’m not the girl I show to be. I might be young, but I know who I am. I’m quiet with most things then suddenly I’m outgoing plain old me. I think twice before talking to a friend. It might not seem like it, but I take in every detail and try to take in the beauty of the outside world. I’m not just the girl who turns everything into a cheesy joke. I’m so much more.

This book has made me realize something about the world. Some of us might be poor, others could have illnesses, some could be living the rich life. Our status in life doesn’t matter. It doesn't put a sign above our heads telling us what we are. You are free to choose your journey. No matter how you want it to be. Yes, it’s going to be one of hardest things you’ll ever do in life, but that’s what makes it worth it. Don’t take a step back in life… go for it. Take another look around. You might just discover something new that no everyone has the eyes to see.  

~Endless Ambitions

I've recently made a new friend.
She's tall, skinny, and beautiful.
She's everything I've ever wanted to be.
Last night as I was looking in the mirror
and she whispered into my ear
that she knows how to make me pretty.
I agreed to her plan.
She asked for my name and she replied
with her name in return.
Ana...
So familiar, where have I heard it before?

I hate the way you smile at the stupidest things
like those horrible jokes,
but for some odd reason I smile too.
I hate the fact that sometimes you never shut up,
then all at once you go silent.
Just like the moon does when the sun rises.
But most of all I hate that you're you.
Everything about you
made my heart carelessly start to care for you.
Now im torn between
LOVING and HATING
you...

Maybe we’re another version of Romeo and Juliet
Then again...maybe not.
I,Juliet, have fallen madly in love with my one and only Romeo.
But Romeo had another plan of his own.
He was just an actor looking for a staring roll.
And I was the perfect fit for a backup character that no one would ever know.
Maybe that’s all we’ll ever be
A fake Romeo and A broken Juliet never really meant to be.

Tell me something,
something you've never told anyone before.

Tell me when you lie in bed,
do you think of all the stupid things we've done.

Tell me if you ever hurt
when you remember how we are meant to live different lives.

Tell me one last time
that all you ever wanted in life was for there to be a YOU AND I
