Story of a Girl
As we grow up
We learn that even the 1 person that wasn’t supposed to ever let us down
probably will
You will have your heart broken more than once
And it’s harder every time
You’ll break hearts to…
So remember how it felt when yours was broken
You’ll fight with your best friend
You’ll blame a new love for the things an old one did
You’ll cry because time is passing to fast
You’ll eventually lose someone you love
So take many pictures
laugh too much
and
love like you’ve never been hurt because…
Every 60 seconds you spend upset
Is a minute of happiness you’ll never get back
Find a person who calls you beautiful instead of hot
Who calls you back when you hang up on them.
Who will stay awake just to watch you sleep
Wait for the person who kisses your forehead
Who wants too show you off to the world when you’re in your sweatpants
Who holds your hand in front of their friends.
Wait for the one who is constantly reminding you of how much they care about you
And how lucky they are too have you…
If you find a path without any obstacles
It’s probably not leading anywhere...
Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take
But by the moments that take your breath away
We are the unheard voice
So here’s a piece of advice…
Let go when you’re hurting too much
Give up when love isn’t enough…
And move on when things are not like before…
For surely there is someone out there
Who will love you even more…
After all…
Nothing’s more painful
then realizing
he meant
Everything
To you…
But you meant
Nothing
To him.
