To see a world in a grain of sand,
And a heaven in a wild flower,
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand,
And eternity in an hour.


I'm tired of waiting,
I'm exhausted of being suffocated,
I'm dreaming of escaping,
But my feelings aside,
You meant what you said,
And I know that we'll be better off in the end,
However right now my heart's torn in two,
And I seriously don't know what to do,
I miss you.

Everyone makes mistakes
Don't let them boil away,
Don't let them get you down,
We can have our chance another day,
While we all move in our own directions,
But my feelings aside,
You meant what you said,
And I know that we'll be better off in the end.

I'll try not to cry,
And I'll make myself heard,
And I'll stand my ground,
Because nothing else matters as long as you try.

I won't lose hope,
And I'll stay strong,
I'll do anything to carry on,
Forget what I've said,
Forget what I've done,
I really hope you're happy,
Just don't forget about me.


The author's comments:
For all those who've lost that first love... It's a feeling I never want to ever feel again, and I expect you feel the same. But it makes you stronger in the long run. And that's what life is about. Picking yourself up when you get knocked down.

I've only had three boyfriends; I wasn't in love with the first, but I fell hard for the second one. We were together eight months before he proposed, and four months after that, he dumped me for a girl he had just met a few days before; she was blonde, skinny, and slutty--just his type. One night, he got mad at me for something stupid; he'd been playing games on his iPod Touch, so I decided to get on my phone and check my Mibba account until he was done...When he realized what I was doing, he said "Really?" then told me to get out and to leave the ring. I was heartbroken, and I didn't know what to do; at first I thought about giving up, but it didn't take me long to realize that I was better off without him. I told myself that this breakup was a blessing in disguise (which it was); after all, I no longer had to worry about his possessive and violent nature. It took every ounce of strength I had to tell him "no" when he begged me to take him back, and I was operating on sheer willpower when I turned away from him and walked out of his life. I can say I'm definitely a stronger person today than I was before, but for some crazy reason, I still miss him sometimes.
