Favorite Quote:
I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control, and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best. ~Marilyn Monroe

Letting go
Isn't giving up.
Letting go
Is acceping
That there are things
That cannot be.
But, I can't,
I don't want to,
Let go
of you.
I want proof
That not everyone
Is going to break my heart.
I want to fall
In love
And know
That you'll be the one
To catch me.
That you'll be the one to care
And,
In return,
I wanna be the one
That you're
Scared
To lose.
