you&#039;re only as tall <br /> as your heart will let you be <br /> and you&#039;re only as small <br /> as the world will make you seem <br /> and when the going gets rough <br /> and you feel like you may fall <br /> just look on the bright side <br /> your roughly six feet tall

&quot;I&#039;m selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&quot; -Marilyn Monroe

you may not be her first, her last, or her only. she loved before she may love again. but if she loves you now, what else matters? she&rsquo;s not perfect - you aren&rsquo;t either, and the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, she may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break - her heart. so don&rsquo;t hurt her, don&rsquo;t change her, don&rsquo;t analyze and don&rsquo;t expect more than she can give. smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she&rsquo;s not there.
