&lrm;&quot;I&rsquo;m learning how to drown out the constant noise that is such an inseparable part of my life. I don&rsquo;t have to prove anything to anyone. I only have to follow my heart and concentrate on what I want to say to the world: I run my world.&quot; - Beyonc&eacute;

I asked you if I was PRETTY, you said NO.<br /> I asked you if I was FAT, you said YES OF COURSE.<br /> I asked if you WANTED to be with me forever, you said NO.<br /> I asked you if you would CRY if I walked away, you said NO.<br /> I had heard too much and needed to leave and <br /> as I walked away&hellip;<br /> you grabbed my arm and told me to stay.<br /> You said&hellip;<br /> your not PRETTY, your BEAUTIFUL.<br /> The only thing FAT, or BIG, about you is your HEART.<br /> I don&rsquo;t WANT to be with you forever, I NEED to be with you forever.<br /> And, Baby I wouldn&rsquo;t CRY, if you walked away&hellip;<br /> I would DYE.

People are like snakes. No matter how much you care for them and love them they will always turn around and strike you. Sometimes they miss sometimes they don&#039;t, but the closer they are to you the more poisonous they become.
