When all I ever wanted was to dream another sunset with you.

I remember the day when we started this?
He made the shape of my heart with his hands.

There are just certain things in life that are better off unknown; 
things you wish you never asked, never saw, never heard or never even felt.

This is the first thing i remember,
Now it's the last thing left on my mind.

It's in times when you
feel absolutely hopeless
that you figure out who
you really are.

I don't know where I stand.
I don't think I'm who I used to be.
All I know is that you're there for me.
I know it will be all right.

I want someone to challenge me.
Sometimes I get tired of always going
with the flow and always being told what
I want to hear. for once, tell me what you really think.

Emotions are weird things.
Mine are constantly fluctuating
wildly and can change dramatically
in a matter of seconds. Maybe i'm bipolar--
or maybe I'm just a teenager.

If you naturally act
differently around different
people, what does it really mean
to "be yourself"?

their flaws. Love is seeing all
their flaws with perfect clarity
and loving them anyway.

or really sad how two people
who know absolutely nothing about
each other fell so in love.

I can let you know everything without
actually letting you know anything. Let's face
it, you probably won't get me.

I cross his mind and he thinks to himself, "Wow, she's amazing."

reminded her of you, but someone who 
wanted her as much as she used to want you.

but the words could be worse.

but to fall out of love is simply awful.

When they asked me what I loved most about life,
I smiled and said you.

I'm leaning on the fence
between past and present tense.
and i'm losing all those stupid
games I swore I'd never play.
But, it almost feels okay.

Looking back, I have this to regret,
that too often when I loved, I did not say so.

I say I'm in love with her. What does that mean?
It means I review my future and my past in
the light of this feeling. It is though I wrote in a
foreign language that I am suddenly able to read.
Wordlessly, she explains me to myself.
Like genius, she is ignorant of what she does.

Why can't I just tell you how I
really feel and not be scared you'll leave?

I can make no apologies for following my heart.

She's a mess of gorgeous chaos, and you can see it in her eyes.
She's completely unexplainable.

But when you get to know her, 
She's everything. She's crazy. 
She's funny. She's honest. 
And you'll never know what she will do next.

when we said goodbye,
it never leaves my mind.

isn't loving someone. 
But having the courage
to let them love you back.

Breaking up with a boyfriend is a million times
easier than breaking up with a best friend.

It takes a lot to learn how to fly with such a heavy heart.

When a boy tells you that you deserve better,
better than him, that's when you know that he is the right guy for you.

It's never too late to have a life, and it's never too late to change one.

When we wake up in the morning,
we have two simple choices: go back
to sleep and dream, or wake up and
chase those dreams.

You deserve to be with someone who makes you happy.
Someone who doesn't complicate your life. Someone who won't hurt you.

It's actually pretty amazing when you
love life. It's something you look forward
to and suddenly who you are and who
your friends are doesn't really matter.
It's what you do that makes the time special.

The worst thing you can do to yourself, 
is fall for someone harder than they fell for you.

I'm so afraid of change. I don't know if it'll be change for the better or change for the worse. And so I'm stuck here, holding on to all that I've got left.

so I could hug nine people at a time.

and yet I look into your eyes knowing everything will be okay,
as long as you’re there by my side.

We tend to fall in love the same way we get sick; without wanting to, without believing it, against our will and unable to defend ourselves. And then we lose love exactly the same way.

the way a girl like that smiles when the world is hers.

your not with me there,
than it'll never be enough.

until that one night, I was staring
at the ceiling and all I could
do was think about was you.

doesn't mean they're a horrible person.

wondering what it is that's going on with
you. Thinking of a way to say i'm sorry
for something i'm not sure I did.
