Forget

The next time I'll fall in love, I want to fall for someone who will make me feel that loving him is the greatest decision I ever made and not just another mistake.

Relationships are worth fighting for. But sometimes, you can't be the only one fighting.

Just because something isn't happening for you right now doesn't mean that it will never happen. It means you're not ready for it yet.

And above all, watch with glittery eyes the world around, because the greatest secrets and lessons to life are hidden in the most unlikely places.

My thoughts tend to sound better in books I didn't write, and in the songs I didn't sing. Even then, sometimes there is no piece of literature, no song, no work of art that can really explain the way you feel. There is a double-edge comfort in knowing that no one really knows.

It doesn’t matter how you did it, why you did it or even if you meant to do it. All that matters is that you broke my heart when you promised me that you wouldn’t. The other shit that comes outta your mouth while you’re apologizing means nothing to me.

Someone out there is meant to be the love of your life, your best friend, your soulmate. The one you can tell all your dreams to and he will never laugh at your heart. He'll brush the hair out of your eyes and send flowers when you least expect it. He'll call you to tell you goodnight before you get into bed or just because he is thinking about you. He'll be bursting to talk to you each morning just to hear the sound of your voice. He'll look into your eyes and tell you that you are the most beautiful girl he has ever seen, and for the first time in your life, you will believe it.

You read "sorry, try again" off the inside of a bottle cap; story of your life. You never come first, you're never the winner, you're never the best. There's always someone better. Maybe next time; you did your best. At least you tried. All these things are supposed to make you feel better, but it just reminds you that no matter how hard you try, how you gave it your all, you failed. You'll never be good enough for him.

Reach for the stars. Stand on your tiptoes, and never tell yourself no. You, yes you, can achieve anything. It may take months, it may take years but when you finally have a firm grasp on that star, the reward is breathtaking.

Funny that one moment both of you were inseparable. And now, you're just two different people trying to forget each other.

And one day I hope you look back at what we had, and regret every single thing you did to let it end.

Looking back now, I don't even see what I saw in you to begin with.

Don't let him have the satisfaction of knowing you'll always be there waiting.

Don't ever give up if you still want to try, don't ever wipe your tears if you still want to cry. Don't ever settle for an answer if you still want to know, don't ever say you don't love him if you can't let him go.

You just have to learn that sometimes, it isn't love. It's just a feeling. A sudden feeling, and you just overreacted.

You know, after that day I changed. I am no longer the same person that I was three weeks ago. I am not the same person who believed in fate. I won't believe in 'signs' anymore because they really do not mean anything, no matter how bad you wish or hope they do. As of right now, I don't believe in love. There is no happily ever after. Not in this world. At least not for me. Not now. Not ever.

I don’t want you, that ship sailed. I just want something other than this.

I said my goodbyes and wiped my hands clean, but the lack of you is starting to kick in.

Do us both a favor and don't come back.

I'm gonna love you with my hands tied.

And when I'm over you, I'll be the happiest I've ever been. Happier than you ever made me.

Like a rainbow after the rain, there’s always a good thing after the pain.

Sometimes it seems like you'd rather watch me drown, than see your hands get wet.

It's a little too late, I'm a little too gone, a little too tired of just hanging on.

No matter what the outcome is, you have to realize you put your all into it and that’s what counts.Things happen how they're meant to,all you can do is learn from them and accept the possibility of a better tomorrow, of a new day.
