Broken Heart

Most of the time we can't tell what's wrong with somebody by just looking at them. After all, they can look perfectly fine on the outside while their insides tell us a whole other story.

The minute you settle for less than you deserve, you get even less than you settled for.

Faith allows things to happen. It is the power that comes from a fearless heart, and when a fearless heart believes, miracles happen.

I never wanted this. This was the last thing in the world I ever wanted to happen. I'm living an endless nightmare, and I don't know if I'll ever wake up.

And if you only knew how fast you make my heart beat when you come close to me.

It would be childish of us to deny that our lives were changing. But for that night, none of us were going anywhere. And that's the thing about best friends.

You had me. For the millionth time, you had me. I know I said I would never come back, I said I'd never do this again. But here I am, laying in your bed and I can't remember a thing I've ever said.

When you're around someone so much, for so long, they become a part of you, and when they change or go away, you don't know who you are without them.


And every tear that had to fall from my eyes,
And everyday I wondered how I'd get through the night,
Every change, life has thrown me,
I'm thankful, for every break in my heart,
I'm grateful, for every scar,
Some pages turned,
Some bridges burned,
But there were lessons learned.



And all the things that break you,
Are the things that make you strong!
You can't change the past,
Cause it's gone.
And you just gotta move on,
Because it's all
Lessons learned.


Now my heart is perpetually broken by lost opportunity; for moments that are never allowed to flourish.
-Russel Brand

You said it hurts and you know that I believe you; searching every little thing to find a way to tell your heart just to wait a little longer - I swear we'll make it.

You can try and hold me back. Build your damn walls, pack sandbags along the edges and yell at the clouds and the rain and the sky to stop. But I will not relent. I will reach you. Because I am the sea. And I will continue to love you, no matter what.

Do you remember when we first met? The way you looked I can't forget. I smiled at you, and you smiled back. It felt just like a heart attack.

Everybody knows they're going to die, but nobody believes it. If we did, we would do things differently.

I am just so sick and tired of this. I want to be alright without you. I want to be able to go a month, a week, a day, an hour without thinking of you. Without wondering why it is you don't care at all anymore. I just am so sick and tired of needing you in my life, knowing that you only make me sad.

When somebody hurts you they take power over you, if you don't forgive them then they keep the power. Forgive him, baby, and after you forgive him, forgive yourself.

She walks down the hall with her head held high. But really last night she had to tell him goodbye. He knows, she knows, but no one else can tell that really inside, her world is crashing down.

You've taught me what it feels like to be hurt and what it feels like to be loved, and what it feels like to have the greatest thing in the world standing right next to you.

I smile because when I cry, it doesn't help. When I cry, all it does is make people ask me if I'm okay. I would love nothing more than to punch these people in the face. I'm sitting here, crying, but yes, I'm perfectly happy. I mean, come on. Give me a break. Obviously I'm not fine.

I believe that once you find "the one", you'll give them a hundred and one chances to get it right. I believe that if you can't be with that person, you never truly move on.

You don't get to choose, you just fall in love and you get this person who is all wrong and all right at the same time and you know you love them so much except sometimes they just drive you completely insane and no one can explain it. And the reason it's so confusing is because it's love, but if love didn't have any challenges what would be the point?

True love burns the brightest, but the brightest flames leave the deepest scars.

He wasn't always like this. He used to tell me how beautiful I looked to him. He was so tender. And then he was different.

They say it's the little things in life that really matter but you're a big part of me, and you matter the most.

Its the beating in my chest that keeps my head from giving up.

To love you must be willing to let go, to let go you must be willing to love.

I've been broken before. I know what it's like to see something funny and not laugh.

Love heals all wounds, but what happens when you get wounded by love?

And boy, you're the reason the weekends are filled with empty vodka bottles.

The person meant for you is the person who'll love you even when there's no more reason to love you. For in your nothingness, the one meant for you will find what's lovable in you.

Goodbye without reasons is the most painful one. Love without reasons is the most beautiful one.

Love is really nothing but a dream that keeps waking me. For all of my trying, we still end up dying. How can it be? Don't say a word, just come over and lie here with me. Cause I'm just about to set fire to everything I see. I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe. There I just said it. I'm scared you'll forget about me.

It's never easy to understand why memories hold our hand but people let go.

I don't know what it is about you. Maybe it's the way nothing else matters when we're talking, or how you make me smile more than anyone else has. It could be the way you say the right thing at the right time. But whatever it is, I just want you to know that it means everything to me.

I'll always be right by your side cause I couldn't stop loving you even if I tried.

I Can't. Do. This. Anymore. I can't pretend that I've moved on, when the truth is that whenever I see you, I'm flooded with everything that we lost. Everything we could've had. Everything we should've had. What we had, it was real. I just know it, it felt real. We both felt it, I just know it. There aren't any words to describe the relationship we had. I don't know what happened between us and that is what still tears me apart inside.

You need to see that life is not always perfect. We will not always get what we want. And though it hurts a lot, what should've happened, happened. Who should've left, left, and whatever's thrown you off course will always bring you to where it is you need to be.

"The best love is the kind that awakens the soul and makes us reach for more, that plants a fire in our hearts and brings peace to our minds."
- The Notebook




"She glances in the mirror and throws her hair up, ripped jeans, and an old hoodie. They're all she needs. She runs out the door five minutes before class starts, and arrives just as the bell rings, cheeks flushed. She doesn't try hard at school. And she plays sports simply because she likes to run. Her rooms a mess, and her cell phone's always dead, but she just smiles. She knows the world is hers. She has her enemies, she's made her mistakes, and she knows it. But she doesn’t care. She's happy with who she is and who she has, cause that's all she needs."


"How do you know he loves you? it's the way he looks at you, even if you aren't the 'prettiest' girl in the room. the way he holds you just because. the way he knows that something is wrong, and yet you don't have to say a single word. it's the way he looks in your eyes, like you're his whole world. that very same way you look at him. it's those moments that pass, reminding you, he loves you."


"I guess, if anything, it's about taking chances, even when you think you're all out of chances. It's about giving forgiveness and unconditional love, even when it seems like you should only do the opposite. It's about trusting that God puts people in your life at certain moments so that you can capitalize the opportunity. It's all about the possibility. It's all about what you do with those possibilities. Life is short, but it moves so fast. Hang on and enjoy the ride. And when someone comes along with whom you enjoy spending the ride with, hold on tight."



"There now, steady love; so few come and don't go. Will you, won't you be the one I'll always know? When I'm losing my control, the city spins around. You're the only one who knows, you slow it down."

"When things go wrong, you’ll find they usually go on getting worse for some time; but when things once start going right they often go on getting better and better"



"The best day of your life is the one on which you decide your life is your own. No apologies or excuses. No one to lean on, rely on, or blame. The gift is yours, it is an amazing journey and you alone are responsible for the quality of it. This is the day your life really begins."


"I love him more than anything in the world, more than my own life. and by some miracle he loves me that way, too."

"Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present."


"When I’m with you, I feel a sense of security. Like you are protecting me no matter what happens. When I’m with you, I feel happy to know you. Because if I didn’t, I don’t know how my life would be. When I’m with you, the rest of the world doesn’t mean anything to me. As long as you’re with me, then everything’s fine."

"Love all. Trust few. Do wrong to no one."
-Shakespeare

 
"There's no other feeling in the world like knowing that he could be with any girl in the entire world, but he chooses to be with you."
"I finally understood what true love meant...love meant that you care for another person's happiness more than your own, no matter how painful the choices you face might be."
- Dear John

"My first thoughts after waking are – and always have been – of you."
- The Wedding

"Poets often describe love as an emotion that we can't control, one that overwhelms logic and common sense. That's what it was like for me. I didn't plan on falling in love with you, and i doubt if you planned on falling in love with me. But once we met, it was clear that neither of us could control what was happening to us. We fell in love, despite our differences and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has happened only once, and that's why every moment we spent together has been eared in my memory. I'll never forget a single moment of it."

- The Notebook



"She didn't fall for him for his hot body or his
amazing smile; there was something in his
words that made her fall harder than she

ever
 had before."

"Don't be afraid of change. 
You may be losing something good 
but there’s a reason why it won't be in your future."


"In this world, cutting helps some deal, everyone is getting fat. No one is telling the truth, lying is consistent, self-made tears can be blue tears or red droplets, war goes on everyday to try and achieve peace and people are starving to death. Charity is a thing of the past, we all lie to ourselves and everyone around us, nowhere is safe, everyone has phobias and multiple fears. We all lose hope, money controls us all and friends all carry knives in order to stab you in the back when you aren’t looking. Disease runs wild, relationships are harder, hook-ups and one night stands happen more often, underage drinking is popular, illegal drugs are being taken, smiles are fake, homes are broken, life-spans are shorter, material things are a must and abuse is high. Sex is meaningless, boys are jerks, girls are the equivalent of the devil, nobody cares, everyone fends for themselves, animals are being eaten, and forests are being destroyed. Health is getting worse, STD’s are common, rumors spread like wildfire, trust is slim, honesty is disappearing and crying is a daily activity. It's kind of complicated, kid, but I'll tell you this. The second you're willing to make yourself miserable to make someone else happy, that's love right there."




"What it all comes down to we will be just fine,
 but every now and then you'll find out
 there's no way out of this troubled state of mind. 
I say sometimes you won't understand the way they play,
 but it won't break you."


“If you kiss someone with feeling, they know it.
 And you know it.
 It’s like everything else goes gray 
and you’re the only two people left in the whole world.




"You know me, I used to get caught up in everyday life. 
Tried to make it through my day so I could sleep at night. 
Tried to figure out my way through the maze of rights and wrong
but like you used to say; nothing feels like it’s really worth it. 
Forget perfect, I’m trying not to be worthless."

"Now it's gonna get harder,
 and it's gonna burn brighter,
 and it's gonna feel tougher each and every day.

 I know how it feels Believe me, I've been there."

"Don't you ever, ever think that you are alone in this world. When you're feeling down & lonely - as if you walk this road alone, stop. Stop and look around you. There is always someone. There will always be someone. And if you see no one, look deeper. Maybe that someone you need lies inside of you. You will never, ever in this world be alone. Just remember that."




"If everyone stopped giving a fuck for a whole five minutes, 
there would ultimately be universal peace."

"I think of you and things you do go ‘round my head the things you said like 'I love only you'" 
-The Beatles- There’s a Place



"You make falling in love easy."


"When you have no light to guide you
 and no one to walk beside you, 
I will come to you. 
When the night is dark and stormy,
 you won't have to reach out for me, 
i will come to you."


"You're greater than you believe, 
you're stronger than you seem,
 and you're smarter than you think."

"Love is what makes you smile when you're tired."

- Terri; age 4




"There's one in this world for everyone. One heart, one soul to walk beside you. One in this life to share your love. One touch to touch the heart inside you. Wanna reach for each night, wanna trust with your life. That's what I believe - you're the one. You're the one in this world for me."






"He loved her of course, but better than that- he chose her day after day."
 -Sherman Alexie

"we can walk if you'd like or spin in circles, I don't care

 either way I'm in love with where we're going"


not all scars show
not all wounds heal
sometimes you can't always see
the pain someone feels


I hope that wherever I go when I die I can be with you.


that amazingly a w e s o m e guy.
 the guy that saved me...
from 
myself. O:
the one that 
changed me.
you know that guy?
the one that i love 
so much it's not possibly healthy.
you still don't know that guy?
ugh, the one who i hate to let leave for 
any amount of time because i'll miss him.
do you know him now?
yeah, that guy. 
i love him.


Turn up the radio and sing your lungs out. Cause kid, this is it, and this is all it will ever be. So get used to it, suck it up, and live your life.



And the way you smile every time you see me, that means the world to me.



If you want to know where your heart is, look to where your mind goes when it wanders.



love is an understatement


You're at your best when you rise from your fall.


I can choose to let it define me, confine me, refine me, outshine me, or I can choose to move the fuck on and leave it behind me.





Underestimated, often imitated, but never duplicated.



Bottom line: Couples who are truly right for each other wade through the same crap as everybody else, but the big difference is they don't let it take them down.





We just laid there while he told me how much he loved me without saying anything. And if there ever was a more perfect day in the history of time, it wasn't one I've heard about.



And that’s what you do when you care about someone. You fight like hell to make sure you keep them. You fight just to know you’re alive. Because you know that without them, you’d have no reason to breathe.





I realized that once people are broken in certain ways, they can't ever be fixed, and this is something nobody ever tells you when you are young and it never fails to surprise you as you grow older and you see the people in your life break one by one. You wonder when your turn is going to be, or if it's already happened.

"I know there could never have been another. I knew it then and I know it now."
- The Notebook


"I know we're headed somewhere, I can see how far we've come. But still, I can't remember anything. Let's not do the wrong thing and I'll swear it might be fun. It's a long way down when all the knots we've tied have come undone. Anywhere you go, I'll follow you down."


"I used to carry the weight of the world, and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly. I don't know why I was so afraid all the time. Memories seemed to bother me my whole life. I don't know why I was so ashamed, such a waste of time. And I don't know who I was trying to be, all those lies. I used to carry the weight of the world, and now all I wanna do is spread my wings and fly."




"For a long time it had seemed to me that life was about to begin - real life. But there was always some obstacle in the way, something to be gotten through first, some unfinished business, time still to be served, a debt to be paid. Then life would begin. At last it dawned on me that these obstacles were my life."


“When you are in Love you can't fall asleep because reality is better than your dreams."
-Dr Seuss


"At this moment there are 6,470,818,671 people in the world. Some are running scared. Some are coming home. Some tell lies to make it through the day. Others are just not facing the truth. Some are evil men, at war with good. And some are good, struggling with evil. Six billion people in the world, six billion souls. And sometimes... all you need is one." -Peyton, One Tree Hill


"Pleasure helps us hide from pain. but pain forces us to hope.
Forces us to keep holding on that tomorrow will be a better day,
that it can’t possibly get worse than this."
"Could have been easier? Yeah. A little smoother, right? Maybe so.
But lying here with you, would I change one thing about that road?
No. I believe things happen for a reason,
even though you might not see it at the time.
cause' now i know every plan that came unraveled,
every crooked path i traveled in my life, led me here to your side."



"If you live your life in regrets, you'll never be satisfied with your future.
Close your eyes. Clear your heart. Let it go."
