An open
ear
that can't
be seen
will hear
all the
truths that
lie beneath.
It's amazing what people will say about you whenever they don't know you're in the room.

How low is low when you're already being kicked while you're down?
And how high is high when your feet refuse to leave the ground?

How do I get to the destination
of weary dreamers and broken hearts?
How do I finish this game of life (and love) when I don't know where to start?

Maybe one day I'll be able
to think things through.

But nothing will feel as close
to the way that I loved you.

I'm sick
of constantly
being on the
back-burner.

I am not someone
you can just use.
I am not,
and never will be,
"the second best."

Give me your all
or give me
nothing.

It's nice to see that
there are still people
in this world
that continue to do
good deeds on
a daily basis-
without their intentions
being of praise and glorification.

Good deeds should be done
because its RIGHT.
Not because
you might
get some sort
of "prize"
out of it.

take my kindness
and throw it
back in my face.

Go ahead;
walk all over
me and use
me as you may.

Go ahead...
do exactly
what everyone
else does-

I'll remember
*all of it

Maybe one day
you and I
will figure all of
this out.

And maybe the
images flowing
in your mind
will incarcerate
themselves
into my heart.
I love someone,
And they will never be mine.

Nothing
surpasses
staying up
until
five a.m
with an
opportunity
to be a
good
friend.
My 200th post goes to my friends. Wrote this on 5/26/14. A fun night.
