Favorite Quote:
You say that you love rain, but you open your umbrella when it rains.<br /> You say that you love the sun, but you find a shadow spot when the sun shines.<br /> You say that you love the wind, but you close your windows when wind blows.<br /> This is why I am afraid, you say that you love me too


I wanted you to feel like you were the prettiest girl in the world.

I wanted you to know… That in my eyes you were- Are

I wanted you to know that you were my number one… My favorite

The world stopped when I texted you. The sun wasn’t nearly as bright as you were in my eyes. 

My love for you was- IS as big as the sun… As the universe

When I looked into your eyes. I only saw peace.

My heart aches at the thought of your name.

I give and give, and give and give……  

I gave until there was nothing left to give; I loved you so much that I always gave….

The moment I stopped giving, was the moment you believed HER over me.

Tears roll down my face when I think of HER.

You were my best friend. The person I loved unconditionally. The person who knew me better than anyone; better than myself.

But you believed HER instead of me…

You loved HER more than you loved me.

 Even though I knew you first.

 Even Though I’m the reason you two met- but that would be petty of me to say..

It would be rude of me to stand in the way of “true love”.
