heart giving mind
That was all part of giving someone a piece of your heart; they ended up taking a whole chunk of your mind and reserving it all for themselves.
facts ever-after happily-ever-after
Is not where I live happily ever after, or who with. It's the fact that I live happily ever after.
thinking
I think I wished for you all of my life.
lonely couple cutting
We have a long way to go to being the perfect couple, we certainly don’t live the fairy tale marriage, he doesn’t shower me with rose petals and fly me to Paris on weekends but when I get my hair cut, he notices. When I dress up to go out at night, he compliments me. When I cry, he wipes my tears. When I feel lonely, he makes me feel loved. And who needs Paris, when you can get a hug?
wall lying people
The more you try to simplify things the more you complicate them. You create rules, build walls, push people away, lie to yourself and ignore true feelings. That is not simplifying things.
simple together plans
Their plan had been very simple: to stay together for the rest of their lives.
...God leads you to it and takes you through it.
selfish party men
Deep down, underneath all his layers of stupidity, he’s a really good man. He may act out far too many selfish thoughts, says all the wrong things at all the wrong times, but behind closed doors he’s a best friend. I understand that he has idiotic tendencies and I can still love him for it. He may not be someone that you feel comfortable sitting next to at a dinner party but for me, he’s someone that I feel comfortable sharing my life with.
echoes empty empty-words
Empty words almost echo within themselves
falling-in-love heart moon
Don't be afraid to fall in love again. Open your heart and follow where it leads you...and remember, shoot for the moon.
fall tired mirrors
I'm never overwhelmed or under it either; just nicely whelmed. I'm OK. Nothing spectacular but sometimes special. I look in the mirror and see this medium average person. A little tired, a little sad, but not falling apart.
silence important conversation
Sighs and silences and avoided conversations are just as important as the things you do talk about.
moving somewhere-else one-thing
Everything in life has a place, and when one thing moves, it must go somewhere else.
love dream believe
There's no limit to what you can dream. You expect the unexpected, you believe in magic, in fairy tales, and in possibilities. Then you grow older and that innocence is shattered and somewhere along the way the reality of life gets in the way and you're hit by the realization that you can't be all you wanted to be, you just might have to settle for a little bit less.
