 I stare at your dark obsidian eyes, while you sit there talking about everything you wish he was. You want him to notice how you care for him, You want him to like you back....

“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won't either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.” <br /> ― Louise Erdrich, The Painted Drum

You lied, and I cried. You&#039;re a jerk, so I was hurt. You&#039;re a<br /> deceiver, But I was a believer. Sorry I wasted your time, I guess?
