The key to happiness is always looking down the path of goodness. -Teresa S. Livi<br /> Don&#039;t Cry Over Someone That Won&#039;t Cry Over You<br /> <br /> No Guy Is Worth Your Tears &amp; When You Find The One That Is He Won&#039;t Make You Cry<br /> <br /> If You Really Love Something Set It Free.<br /> If It Comes Back It&#039;s Yours, If Not It Wasn&#039;t Meant To Be<br /> <br /> Some Day You&#039;ll Cry For Me Like I Cried For You, <br /> Some Day You&#039;ll Miss Me Like I Missed You, <br /> Some Day You&#039;ll Need Me Like I Needed You, <br /> Some Day You&#039;ll Love Me But I Won&#039;t Love You<br /> <br /> Time will make you forget me but time will make me love you more than before.<br /> <br /> If I never met you, I wouldn&#039;t like you. If I didn&#039;t like you I wouldn&#039;t love you. <br /> If I didn&#039;t love you I wouldn&#039;t miss you, but I did, I do and I will.<br /> <br /> My heart longs for you, my soul dies for you, <br /> my eyes cry for you, my empty arms reach out for you.<br /> <br /> Forget who hurt you yesterday, <br /> But don&#039;t forget who loves you tenderly today.<br /> <br /> Love can make you happy but often times it hurts,<br /> but love is only special when you give it to who its worth.<br /> <br /> Boyfriends come and go, but friends are forever.<br /> <br /> The hardest part of loving someone is knowing when to let go, <br /> and knowing when to say goodbye.<br /> <br /> No pleassure, no expressions just an illusion of what should of but wasnt.<br /> <br /> I hate you for not letting me have you.<br /> <br /> Forget the times he walked by, Forget the times he made you cry, <br /> Forget the times he spoke your name, Remember now your not the same. <br /> Forget the times he held your hand, Forget the sweet things if you can,<br /> Forget the times &amp; Don&#039;t pretend, Remember now he&#039;s just your friend.<br /> <br /> The day you finally decide to love me will be the day <br /> after the day I have given up on chasing you<br /> <br /> <br /> I hate to see the one I love happy with somebody <br /> but I surely hate it more to see the one I love unhappy with me...<br /> <br /> I had a dream and it was about you ... <br /> I smiled and recalled the memories we had ... <br /> then I noticed a tear fell from my eyes ... you know why? <br /> Coz in my dream you kissed me and said goodbye ...

Favorite Quote:
&ldquo;She seems so cool, so focused, so quiet, yet her eyes remain fixed upon the horizon. You think you know all there is to know about her immediately upon meeting her, but everything you think you know is wrong. Passion flows through her like a river.&quot;

Favorite Quote:
Some say pessimism is bad. But, the way I look at it: if you don&#039;t set your sights high, and you do better than you thought, you&#039;ll feel extremely good; if you don&#039;t do so well, you won&#039;t be as disappointed.
