You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with. <3

Things that bother me need to be let go,
My life is like a glass,
Its shattered and thrown in every direction,
My Past,
I'm not gonna change, but I'll try to make a difference,
My life is a book,
With chapters each year,
With paragraphs each day,
With sentences each minute,
It'll never be done, until the day I'm gone,
My past,
Remember the time,
Remember the places,
Remember the memories,
Remember it all,
Its all a work of art,
With colors and shapes,
emotions that don't betray,
My past
