Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here.

Its hard to wait around for something that you think wont ever happen but its even harder to stop when you know its everything you want

The most important thing you can give somebody is a chance.

Treat your love like a fire-fly. Like it only gets to shine for a little while. Put it in a mason jar with holes in the top and run like hell to show it off.

The part that stinks about love is that you do get to choose who you love,but you don't get to choose who loves you back...

Something I noticed about you is that you can ALWAYS make me laugh...Even when there's a sky full of clouds and they're all raining on me...

**There is one moment in your life when you are with
someone and you feel like the world has stopped and your life seems so perfect, make sure you never lose that person**

Love is rare, life is strange- nothing lasts and people change.

Don't spend your time looking hard for that "special someone." The harder you look, the further from you that person will be. Let fate bring you and that special someone together. It always works

Whenever I watch romantic movies, witness couples kiss and make-up, listen to love songs... I smile and feel good 'cause I know that love still works, if not for me, at least to others."

Its better to lose your pride for someone you love than to lose someone you love for your pride

You think you know me so well as a friend, you say you understand me. You claim you can read my mind, predict my moods, sense my feelings. so why don't you realize that I'm so in love with you?

Where were you when I could have loved you? Where were you when I gave my heart away? all my life, I've been dreaming of you, but you came along one promise too late.

A great love? Its when you shed a tear and you still long for him. its when he ignores you and you still love him. Its when he loves another and you still smile and say 'I'm happy for you'

Have you ever hated somebody so much that you wish they would just leave and never come back ... but yet, loved them so much, you knew you'd die if they did?

Let me be angry please. Its the only way I can keep you from seeing how much I need you.

I don't have the heart to hurt you, That's the last thing I want to do. But I don't have the heart to love you. Not the way you want me to.

I sometimes wish I could be like you, being able to get so close to people who you really have no intention of being close to. Letting people get so close to you, only to push them away. But then I remember, I could never be like you, I have a heart.

"Love is when two people who care for each other get confused."

"The one person you can truly love is often right in front of you."

"The first sigh of love is the last breath of wisdom."

"To find a person who will love you for no reason, and to shower that person with reasons, that is the ultimate happiness."

"I don’t know if you are beautiful or not; I haven’t gotten past your eyes yet..."

Love takes off masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within.

The hardest of all is learning to be a well of affection, and not a fountain; to show them we love them not when we feel like it, but when they do.

"Life is too short to waste your time on a guy who doesn't adore, respect, and love you for you."

"Maybe I don't believe in love any more, but I believe in you and that's enough to see me through until tomorrow."

"Somehow, the conversation mentioned your name. And someone asked if I knew you. Looking away I thought of all the times we had together; sharing laughter, tears, jokes and tons more. And then, without explanation you were gone. I looked to where they were waiting for an answer, and then said softly, 'Once...I thought I did.'"

You say I'm always happy, and that I'm good at what I do, but what you'll never realize is, I'm a damn good actress too

You hug him good-bye like it's nothing...while all you want to do is hold on forever...but you let go, smile and walk away...then cry all the way home because you know it will never be the same...because try as you might you can't make someone love you, sometimes you have to let them be free...and letting go, that is when love hurts the most of all

Falling for someone the first time is easy. It's the second time around, after you have fallen and trusted someone to catch you and they didn't, when it becomes difficult to let yourself fall again.

I'd like to stay a secret, like walking in the dark. If no one knows you, no one cares, so no one breaks your heart.

I wish I could find a man that wouldn't play with my heart and use me, screw with my emotions and abuse me, I wish I could find a guy that really cared, one who loved me for me, not for the woman he wished me to be.

Yeah I'm alone, but I don't need happy couples walking in the hall to remind me.

You won't see me surrender, you won't see me confess cause you've left me with nothing, but I've worked with less.

To love someone is to wait for them, but you need to love yourself too, by knowing when to walk away

It wasn't necessarily the things you said that made me walk away. I think it was just too many things that you didn't say. It wasn't the things you did that made me question you & ask why. It was all those things you never did that made me cry. I believe that your intentions were never to hurt me. But by you're lacking you deserted me. I'll just sit & waste away until the day that you come back saying you've changed...

Sad isn't it? How no matter what you do or say to me...when you come running back...when you need me again...I'll be here...right here waiting for you. I'll take you back...no questions asked. Sad isn't it?

When it comes to relationships, don't be the person who has to look back and wonder what they could have had. Forget about the risk and take the fall. If it's really love, then there's no risk at all. Besides, of all the words, tongue and pen, the saddest are, it could have been.

You know you're in love when you want to tell everyone about it, even though they haven't asked.

Throughout life you will meet one person who is unlike any other, you could talk to this person for hours and never get bored, you could tell them things and they won't judge you... this person is your soul mate, your best friend... don't ever let them go.

You know it's right when no matter what you're doing or what kind of mood you're in ... he can make you smile.

Last night meant everything - it was a simple night, nothing big, a few kisses here and there - but the kisses that are the littlest mean the biggest things

I will give anything to talk to a person who will make me think about the things that scare me, the things that I find hard to talk about, and will help me see the world from another point of view.

To get a woman's heart, a man must first use his own.

We said our goodbyes and when you were almost gone you turned and gave me one more look, the look that said it all, everything was going to be okay....

If it isn't complicated, then he probably isn't your soul mate

When you apologized it was like God told me it was okay to hold on. -

"...and he grabbed my hand and half of me wanted to scream not to touch me and half of me wanted to beg him not to let go."

I chased after love for what seemed forever, but it was when I stopped to take a rest that it found me.

"One thing I've learned from the movies is that there's one perfect guy waiting for you. One thing I've learned from reality is that there's no perfect guy, but a lot more love than you can imagine hidden behind the imperfections, and you shouldn't miss out on that."

"Everybody needs to belong somewhere. Life can feel so alone without someone who cares. And when life becomes something just to get through, that's when I'm glad that I belong to you. Sometimes life brings more pain than we can bare alone. When hope is gone and I have no strength to stand on my own. When nothing helps, there's nothing I can do. You surround me and show me that I belong to you. You're the one who'll never let me down. When love is gone, there are no arms to run to anymore. I'm all alone, there's no one for me to live for. Letting go of all of the things I've clung to. That's when I need to feel that I belong to you."

"The ones you truly love are the ones with the most power to hurt you"

--Some people are just not meant to be in your life--

* Even if we never talk again, please know that I am forever changed because of who you are and what you meant to me.*

Even if he doesn't like me tomorrow, at least I knew he loved me yesterday. It's better to be with no one than to be with the wrong one.

I loved you, its not that I fell out of love with you, because that would be impossible, I just couldn't handle the heartache anymore...its not that I don't love you, its that I cant.

I made the mistake of choosing not to be with you and now I have to live with the fact that you moved on and I broke my own heart.

Your heart decides who it likes and who it doesn't. You can't tell your heart what to do. It does it all on its own when you least expect it or even when you don't want it to. It loves who it wants to and there is nothing you can do about it

You can't do this. You can't put one relationship on hold for another. It's like call waiting.. you leave one person on hold long enough and they are gonna hang up..

I've accepted that we can't be, but I've also accepted that you're going to be that one person I carry with me for the rest of my life, the one that is always going to make my heart jump a little & my stomach tie up in knots no matter how happy I am otherwise & no matter how long it's been.

I love you. And not, not in a friendly way, although I think we're great friends. And not in a misplaced affection, puppy-dog way, although I'm sure that's what you'll call it. I love you. Very, very simple, very truly. You are the epitome of everything I have ever looked for in another human being. And I know that you think of me as just a friend, and crossing that line is the furthest thing from an option you would ever consider. But I had to say it. I just, I can't take this anymore. I can't stand next to you without wanting to hold you. I can't, I can't look into your eyes without feeling that, that longing you only read about in trashy romance novels. I can't talk to you without wanting to express my love for everything you are. And I know this will probably queer our friendship - no pun intended - but I had to say it, because I've never felt this way before, and I don't care. I like who I am because of it. And if bringing this to light means we can't hang out anymore, then that hurts me. But God, I just, I couldn't allow another day to go by without just getting it out there, regardless of the outcome, which by the look on your face is to be the inevitable shoot-down. And, you know, I'll accept that. But I know...I know that some part of you is hesitating for a moment, and if there is a moment of hesitation, then that means you feel something too. All I ask, please, is that you just, you just not dismiss that - and try to dwell in it for just ten seconds. Alyssa, there isn't another soul on this fucking planet who has ever made me half the person I am when I'm with you, and I would risk this friendship for the chance to take it to the next plateau. Because it is there between you and me. You can't deny that. Even if, you know, even if we never talk again after tonight, please know that I'm forever changed because of who you are and what you've meant to me.

There are so many things I wish I could tell you, but I can't. I'm not sure if you would ever understand because I don't understand half of it. I want to be with you so bad, but I'm so afraid of getting hurt and because of that, I end up getting hurt more. I can sit here and say that I don't care about you and that I'm not going to let you hurt me, and just by saying that I know that you can and have. It’s not your fault, it never is. Its me.

There’s so many words I cannot say when í look into your eyes maybe you’ll reject me and shatter all my pride each day my love grows stronger but í wont let you know there's way to much behind my smile that í can never show so I dream of us together, of how good it could be. And I will keep my love a secret until you’re in love with me.

I wish i had the guts to walk away and forget about what we had. But, i Can't because i know you won't come after me, and i guess that's what hurts the most.

Anyone can hate. It costs to love.

"When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it... always."

Few are thoses who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.

I do my thing, and you do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations, and you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.

I used to believe hate was the devils bait. Now I know it is love the devil holds in his glove.

The supreme happiness of life is the conviction of being loved for yourself, or, more correctly, inspite of yourself.

It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

You can close your eyes to the things you do not want to see, but you cannot close your heart to the things you do not want to feel.

Sometimes...it's holding on that hurts more than letting go.

I've always believed that you shouldn't want to mend a broken heart, because that's someone you don't want to forget. Scars can be good.

Love has got complicated, tied up with promises, bruised with plans, dogged with an ending that nobody wants - when all love is, is what it always is - that you look at me and wante me and I don't turn away. If I want to say no, I will, but for the right reasons. If I want to say yes, I will, but for the right reasons. Leave the consequences. Leave the finale. Leave the grand statements. This simplicity of feeling should not be taxed.

I am of nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough.

Women are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The men don't want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren't as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they're amazing. They just have to wait for the right man to come along, the one who's brave enough to climb all the way to the top.

I haven't been this scared in a long time
& i'm so unprepared so here's your
valentines, boquet of clumsy words a
simply melody..this world's an ugly place
but you're so beautiful to me <3

I'm not broken - only slightly damaged.
self inflicted - i would never give you that
victory. i'm bitter & i'm hurt & i'm ready
to move on from this. the process is slow
& agonizing, but so is life

When you feel that everything is wrong, and life is giving up on you, remember that maybe you could've done something about it.... don't wait for anything to come your way... because when you realize what you want, what you need; it will be to late. I'm just telling you, learn from my mistake.
