Strength in the Storm

Crazy how having respect for someone 
Gets confused with kissing there butt 
I guess I was just raised different form you 
I'm sorry 
But i'm honestly happy we're not friends anymore 
I can’t believe I let you walk all over me 
And yet i'm only seeing it once i've taken a good step back
I've always been someone to believe that everything happens for a reason 
You might not understand what that reason is 
But one day all the pieces will come to you 
And you'll understand 
I wish more high schoolers understood 
That high school is such a small part of your life 
So even though i'm having a hard time too 
I want all the high school students reading this to remember 
You are loved 
And things will be hard at times
You'll feel like you can never get to the shore of this horrible ocean 
But I believe in you 
And I know how it feels to be in that ocean for a long time 
With the waves rushing over your head 
A million times over and over again 
And i'm sorry you feel like this 
But you have to remember there is things to live for 
I know you didn't ask to be placed on this earth 
But youre here for a reason 
Trust me  
YOU ARE WORTH SOMETHING 
YOU ARE LOVED 
Please don't forget that 
-R.S
