Favorite Quote:
"To Thine Own Self Be True" - Shakespeare


You lied, I believed
You laughed, I cried
You judged, I took it.
You liked it, I hated it
You left, I waited.
But what did you gain?
You disappeared, but took something with you.
You threw what I had given you onto the floor without a second thought.
Now there is a gaping hole in my chest where something important should be.
But what do you care?
You smile, you laugh, you cry, you finally hurt.
But not because of something I did,
No, because of something she did.
I should not deserve to feel like this for someone who doesn’t care, but I do.
I should not feel hurt for someone who laughs at the same thing.
I should not have to smile around you when all I want to do is cry.
I should not have fallen for your tricks.
I shouldn’t have fallen.
I shouldn’t have fallen.

"We accept the love we think we deserve." -Stephen Chbosky

Once again sad, but inevitable. I want to read more uplifting and possibly humoric poetry from you, but if this is what your heart writes write on. My favorite part was when you had repetition of the last two lines, you had added a everlasting depth.
