"In the end, it's still best to wait for the one we want rather than settle for what's available. It's still best to wait for the one you love rather than to settle for the one who's around. It's still best to wait for the right person, because life's too short to waste on the wrong one."

I was never ready to say good-bye.
I was the lock and you were the key.
I had my eyes and heart on a new guy,
and no matter what you still loved me.

Our first note of l-o-v-e,
was when we were in the third grade.
Our first kiss was under that big tree,
where you are now at rest and have been laid.

You always said that love is unafraid.
I was being manipulated and,
in a awful way you were betrayed.
This was not what I wanted or planned.

Love can make us do and say crazy things.
When the truth gets out it is like dried springs.

The story behind it is that she fell in love with another guy who convinced her to kill her own boyfriend to be with him. Please comment thanks.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
