"Give me one last chance"
The words he will say
The words he will type
I am sure that he is not the only one to say them
Bound by this force,
This power
It draws them together
It holds them close
They are the things stories are written around.

The seemingly impossible

They have what others spend their entire lives looking for
They have love
In its purest form

Love does not mean that emotion you feel towards someone
Love is the commitment you have made to someone
It is that forever,
The until death do us parts
And the I do's

Love is not a noun
It is a verb an action that can not be anything but an action
To love someone with your entirety
To love and know that you are loved

To hear the words of hate come from their mouth and understand that they are not hate but compassion
They yell these words because they care about you because they love you

Time will pass
People will change
We will wish we lived in a fairytale

Unexplainable things happen everyday
Stories come to life in their purest form

The girl who just wants a man to chase after her gets it
The boy who wants to give the woman of his dreams the world gets to

When you love though you look past these things
When you love, material possessions mean nothing and all the chasing in the world will get you no where
Unless you truly understand this

It is not the memories that you make or the things you have
But rather people you have with you
For love there is no greater gift than the person who loves you by your side

As with all the greatest gifts in life
You must be patient and wait for love to come to you
The boy in this story, waits for the girl and when he gets her. He holds on for dear life and he never lets go, because he knows how valuable she is.

You broke me
But somewhere deep inside I always knew,
You and I were not meant for forever.

I always knew we wouldn't last;
Something in me told me that.

But over and over
My mind runs through our time
And I wonder why?

Why does it hurt when I knew we'd end?
Why does it hurt knowing I won't see you again?
Why do I wish for one more day? One more night?

My mind tells me to move on forward,
But my heart, it wishes for just a little more.
I'm at war with myself,
Logic and reasoning
Versus
Wishes and dreaming.

My mind says move on
But worse off
My heart says what if?

You broke me
But deep inside I always knew you would
And yet I still hurt.
Call me what you will
I understand that the things you say are just words
I never understood the phrase actions speak louder than words
Until I was 19, heart broken and looking back at my life

You see I have a lot of great friends
Friends who are there for me when I need
Friends who worry even when I don't want them to

So call me what you will
Say what you want
Say that I don't care
Say I'm bad for her
Say I'm wrong

I don't care what you say
You see the problem with this world is we hang on what people say not what they do
I am not perfect in fact I am far from it

But I have one thing
One thing that most guys don't
I'm old fashioned
I make a vow or a promise and I keep it
So even after everything has gone and I am left
I will hold that promise
You see even if she calls 10 years from now
Even if I'm on the other side of the world
If I have a career
If I haven't spoken to her since that day,

The moment she calls I will be there because I promised I would be
I promised to always love her
To protect her
To be there when she needs someone
To be the thing that pushes her to do better when everyone else gives up

Call me stupid and childish but those promises mean something
They aren't words
They are actions

And your **** right I will push her
I will be there
I will love her
And I will protect her until the day I die
Doesn't matter who you are you will not hurt her without answering to me
First time I've put this much raw unadulterated power behind my words. I am truly sorry I can't read this to you, because it will be hard to capture the power in these words
The smell of burning rubber
The sight of tail lights
The echo of the fading acceleration

That's what I want
I want to hit the freeway at 120
And leave it all behind

It doesn't seem to matter what I do
Because if I leave you behind
I'll be dead on arrival

Under these stars
You fall asleep
So you lay in your bed

You think about your perfect life
While I'm a hundred miles away by now
I can't leave this behind


You lay in your bed just quiet and content
Now you think I'm mad
I wish I could look in your eyes and show you how I felt
Unwrap my soul and feel the heat it once had
You'd see that I can't be mad

This soul is burning cold
Lost in a world without a light

Reality sets back in and I'm 2 minutes from your house.
The way to her heart,
Is through respect,
You want to love her,
You need to love her friends,
You need to love her family,

Before you ever ask her,
Ask her father,
Show him,
That you are the man that respects him,
That you respect his daughter,

Get his permission to date,
Get his permission to be serious,
Get his permission to marry her,

Wherever life takes you,
Wherever loves takes you,
Respect her,
She is fragile,
She is precious,
She is the most valuable thing that you will ever have.

Love her as if you would never love again,
Kiss her as if it is your last,
Hold her as to comfort her,
Look her in the eyes when you tell her you love her,

Respect the things she says,
Her heart only trusts so many times,
Don't use all your chances to make her happy or she will find someone who will,

As the quote goes,

Protect her like a daughter,
Respect her like a mother,
Love her like a wife.

Be

Responsible,
Empower her,
Support her,
Personalize her problems,
Enrich her life,
Communicate,
Together live life
"If our love is tragedy, why are you my remedy."
"If our love is insanity, why are you my clarity."

It's funny how song lyrics can describe a situation so perfectly,
Our love really is a tragedy, it's almost funny.
Because whenever I feel down you can cheer me up and whenever I'm having trouble understanding you fix it,
Strange the most random assortment of word in the most random song and it described emotions perfectly,

This relationship goes three ways and he only knows two isn't it funny that you date him and you love him but when he isn't around your always with me, now normally I would oppose to the idea of someone being with two people but technically we aren't dating it feels like we should be... Like.. We are but I know and you know we aren't he's worried though he's scared because he knows that although you love him your always with me

He gets scared of the thought that you can be with him and yet be so close to me such deep feelings and giving him everything but yet he knows you spend more time with me, more time with the "fall back guy" but is it really what I am or am I just whats scares him what his nightmares are yea I think it's that because if he knew the real situation between us the feelings we shared for each other but kept hidden from the world it could destroy him it would destroy it should of already but we hide we lie we cheat we steal we commit the perfect crime and he can't catch us but what about the days he starts to when our plan begins falling apart yea those days those are the ones you hide from the days I promise to be there for you and the days when the world will see us for us
As I think of you I remember how much I hate you.
I'd rather get my arm severed off with an old rusty spoon.
I'd rather be attacked by clowns.
I'd rather eat a spider,
a freaking spider than see you.
But I mean it's all my fault right?
Everything is always MY fault right?
You think because three years have passed everything can be okay again?
Wrong.
No, I'm not overreacting.
Yes, I forgive you.
No, I'm not holding a grudge.
No, I'm not always okay.
No, don't talk to me.
Just no.
I don't want you in my life ever again.
You may seem to have forgotten everything and I try to but it always comes back.
I hope everything you did slowly seeps through your brain and destroys you.
Like you destroyed me.
My heart strings are ropes
that attach to people like hooks
they reach their strong arms and latch on
and never lose grip.
When you try to leave
my heart is still attached
so leave now, fast.
before the hook's teeth sink deeper,
biting into a yearning security from you
Just rip the fistful of my heart out
that your rope is connected to
like a band aid,
just get it over with.
It's you and me,
Nobody ever told us,
But nobody ever had to,
We've been meant to be since the day we met,
Love seems inadequate,
Forever doesn't feel long enough,
Your like a blessing from god,
Your a lesson from life,
Your the girl I love,
Your are the girl I've seen hurt so many times before,
Hurting stops now,
I'll take your pain if you take my name,
Because tonight my heart isn't sure what it feels,
It feels like it's exploding and imploding together,
It feels new,
It feels needed,
It feels you,

— The End —
