And he was the only one,

The only one who ever loved me

Oh so innocently

He was the only one

Who tried to stop me
From always lowering myself

He was the only one

Who helped me
To be confident with myself

He was the only one

Who changed his way
So that I won't get hurt

He was the only one

Who still cared
Even after there's no more 'us'

He was the only one

Who showed me
What love was really like to him

I spent months wondering
How could a human be so unselfish

And I realized

He wasn't trying to make me love him

He was trying to make me love me
To the only guy who ever touched my heart (K)

Surrounded by scattered glasses,
Located in an isolated area,
Ignored by everyone,
Passed by as if unseen,
Nobody noticed it's subtle beauty,
Little do they know,
She's a wild flower,
Waiting to be noticed

Liar liar pants on fire,
Nose is long as a telephone's wire,
If I'm the one who's guilty honey,
Then why are you the one having trouble sleeping?

I forgive you.
For all the times your empty words betrayed my trust;
I forgive you.
For all of the blames I've had to take--
I forgive you.
For the silences you left in place of apologies--
I forgive you.

He had kissed her soft cheek
and understood what she meant to him.

He had breathed in her scent
and felt the completion that came with it.

He had felt her love for him
and known what heaven should be.

And like the utter fool he was,
**he had lost it.

Dress to ****, don't show everything.
Pass smiles, be polite to everyone.
Keep your voice down, never to laugh out loud.
Eat a modest portion, and only one piece of cake.

Walk gracefully, poise in every move.
Sit up straight, legs daintily crossed.
Hold your wine glass by the stem, never by the bowl.
Take a sip by looking into, never over the glass.

There's nothing in the world like proper etiquette.
You can always tell a lady has good breeding
by how effortlessly classy she is.

Little girls may be made
of sugar, spice, and
everything nice

but a true lady is made
of diamonds, sparkles, and
things that will make you *shiver
