My heart wrenches

To be satisfied

By your moving speech.
How ironic it is that you need to cross on something broken just to get to the other side.
Funny, right? When i first saw this road sign I thought to myself, there might be something wrong in the sentence construction. But as I ponder on it deeper, i realized something significant in a person's life: YOU REALLY NEED TO CROSS ON THE BROKEN LINE TO GET TO THE OTHER SIDE.

There is a cautious voice inside that may cause you to stop in the middle of your tracks. You will experience bumps and may be chased by cadillac pains, and yet...

there is something about your exhausted breathing, strained hands, bruised feet, that sends a tingling sensation into your chest; your pumping heart is still fighting for where you want to be. You take a little step forward. Again. Because you strongly believe that beyond these broken lines, just beneath the horizon of clouds, is the place where you belong.

You cross the broken lines that make you feel incomplete to fill in the gaps.
Slowly now.. making your self whole.
For the nth time.

Breathe for a second.
Think of where you are in life.
Is it where you want to be?
If not,
you ALWAYS have the ability to change that.
No matter what it takes,
you will find where you belong.
If you are already in the place you want to be,
keep fighting for that place.
Don't think just because you made it,
that you get to give up.
No.
You must fight for what you love,
and work for what you want.
Nothing good or great comes easy,
but it's all worth it.

I may not be
The smartest girl,
I may not be the happiest.
I may not be the apple of
Everyone's eye.
I may be more broken
Than I am beautiful.
But I promise I
Am
Still worth
Loving.

There you'll be
Waiting for me
Down on your knee
There you'll be

*Yes

The summer sky was slashed across our backdrop,
and the bleeding sun beginning to fade,
we counted out the hours, minutes and the seconds,
wishing all the moments we lost could've stayed.
And in that moment I loved you,
I loved you so sure and deep,
and in our temporary lives, on this temporary earth, this temporary moment made it all seem...
worth it.

Don't create a monster out of yourself
"Why not?"
Because it's not worth it
"Was the way you lived till now worth it?"
No!
"Then don't stop me
It's a change I'm loving to be
And this is what I want"

Did she offend you?
Baring her shoulders, her collarbones, her knees,
How risqué of her.
Dressed for comfort in the 90 degree weather,
She was asking for it, right?

Did you not break her?
Make her scared to wear what she wants or walk alone.
But she deserved that, didn't she?

Are you sorry for hurting her?
After you used her, she tried to **** herself three times,
All because you couldn't control yourself.
Was her body so distracting that you took away
Her whole life?

Going uphill is hard
But downhill is easy

Holding light inside is hard
But hoarding darkness is easy

Finding peace is hard
But holding chaos is easy

Somethings are hard
**But they are worth it
Or so I've heard
