&quot;I&#039;d rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I&#039;m not&quot; <br /> &quot;Somewhere betweeen us talking, you saying I deserve better, and you making me laugh when I wanted to cry, I fell in love with you.&quot;

&quot;Before you, my life was like a moonless night. very dark. but there were stars-- points of light and reason. and then you shot across my sky like a meteor. suddenly everything was on fire. there was brilliancy, there was beauty. when you were gone, the meteor had fallen over the horizon. everything went black. nothing had changed. but my eyes were blinded by the light. I couldn&#039;t see stars anymore.&quot;
