Find me on the floor Body crumpled, heart cracked Hands shaking, chills running up my back Falling and falling, deeper into dark Trying harder and harder, just to make a mark...

People don't always put up walls to keep other people out, sometimes they put up walls to see who's strong enough to break them down

&amp; ultimately, he&#039;s going to find out: how you <br /> chew, how you sip, how you hum, how you dance, <br /> how you smell at every point in the day. The fact that <br /> most of your friends are shallow. That you hate <br /> sitting in an aisle seat, how you sometimes can&#039;t <br /> seem to listen, how you get hyper when you travel, <br /> how certain games or shows make you really happy, <br /> how you get cranky because you&#039;re too stupid to <br /> remember to sleep, how you don&#039;t like the way you look<br /> in most of your pictures, how you can&#039;t get off the <br /> phone when it&#039;s late, because you don&#039;t want to sound <br /> like you care, how you have no ability to save receipts. <br /> He&#039;s going to know all of it; everything about you, <br /> he&#039;s going to know. &amp; he&#039;s still going to love you.

Nothing matters more than those who depend on you, emotionally or physically. Even if the situation is life or death, you have to be there for them, because they need you.
