Your worth is what you allow it to be.

Sticks and stones may break my bones but your words were always the hardest.

If you__e in a relationship and find yourself constantly using __e_ instead of ___ - stop. You are more than your relationship.

I remember things like dates down to minutes, what they smelled like, how they walked and how they tug their hands in their pockets. I twine myself in nostalgia of moments and not necessarily the people in them. I long for the idea of the past and occasionally forget the present. I find myself lost in memories, just looking to recreate the moment; forgetting the past is in the past and what we have is now.

I pushed him against his Jeep, looked him dead in the eye and kissed him. He asked if he could come up, and I just walked up the steps and said, not yet. That was the moment I knew I loved him.

The problem was I always took the blame. But he was wrong. But I thought me taking the blame could fix it.

Sometimes the anxiety takes over and I can__ seem to fathom the love he gives me.

We do things because we want it, not because they__e good for us.

Sometimes others narcissism will take place of your happiness. Don__ let it happen.

We can__ be afraid to dismiss the unappreciative.

I write the right. I do the left.

Losing someone doesn__ scare me. Death doesn__ scare me. What scares me is the inability to no longer feel the touch of the one you love.

The truth is: I was lost in him. I had gone from losing one of the most important people in my life and then losing someone I loved a month later. I wrapped myself in people, in lust, in the idea of love. I met him and I met a gentlemen, and when I found out who he truly was, I was still in love with the gentleman and justified all of his actions.

When someone says they love you, don__ believe it. Love is shown with actions and not words.

The hard part wasn__ breaking up. The hard part is forcing myself to fall out of love with you.

They say if the love is true, then it__ easy. But that__ false. Love is complicated. It__ sticky. It__ bliss and it__ a mix of emotions. It__ not easy.

Looking back and wondering if it could have worked eventually hurts more than trying and failing.

They leave to test the waters but fail to realize the waters are full of rapids.
