Every time you've ever ****** up, you'd sing your anthem to me.

Forgive and forget.
     Forgive and forget.

**** forgive and forget.

Forgiveness was never something you deserved.
Not when you've drug someone through Hell and back
Time and time again, never stopping to think about
Anyone else but yourself.
Hurting those around you constantly.
Always saying that you'd change, but we all knew better.
You would use that quote to your advantage
To win back the hearts of those you used and manipulated.

No.
You don't deserve forgiveness.

And to forget? HA! I refuse.
Doing so would only allow myself to never learn.
To never stop making the same mistake of giving you second chances
That you will never deserve.
I won't be prisoner to this constant state of denial that every thing is okay.

I know what you've done.
And it's not okay.

So have a good ******* life, you *******.

Hi, my name's Ashley. And I'm a hopeless romantic.

     "Hi, Ashley."

     I've been a hopeless romantic for as long as I can remember. I guess it all started with doodle hearts on the margins of school notes, which honestly, has ended up spiraling out of control. It really has been a struggle. I grew up believing in happily ever afters. I peer out from behind heart shaped glasses, dreaming up fairy tale scenarios on the daily. Believing that chivalry still lives on, or at least hoping it does somewhere. My heart aches when affections aren't returned. My soul is restless and passionate. I've been desperately hanging on the belief that love always prevails. My concept of life just isn't realistic anymore and when it falls short of my expectations, I feel like I'm being let down... over and over and over again.

     *"We're here for you, Ashley."

Insomniac nights are so lonely and
Bizarre, with the medicine not working
Tossing and turning, half awake hallucinating
Sad and confused and fed up and bitter
Praying for sleep, or death, or relief
In the back of my mind wondering
If I'd ever fall asleep sad with you by my side

Put on a smile and pretend you're okay,
Fake your emotions and get by day by day.

Hope and pray you see her soon,
Grab her, hold her, and kiss her under the moon.

Maybe next time she'll stay forever,
Atleast in my dreams were always together.

But for now I'll forget what you have done,
And just be glad we live under the same sun.

I really, really ******* miss you,
All I ever wanted was a 'I love you too'

I'm sorry I fell for those innocent eyes,
I'm just begging for no more Goodbyes.
