Do you believe that everything happens for a reason? I mean, let’s be honest here. I go on a trip to California, end up dropping the trip early, come back home to Alabama, fall in love, get hassled by evil spirits, and then I proceed to get my heart broken.

     It doesn’t make any sense! None of this shit adds up! Sometimes I wonder if I am losing my mind, or if this is common in people’s lives. Maybe I am just handling it worse than most others do.

     You know what? Fuck all of that! Let’s try to figure this one out! I simply cannot list one good reason that I shouldn’t...

I was there for you when you needed me the most.
Every one of your tears that I endured tore me apart, piece by piece…
But that’s okay.
It seemed as if your alcohol addiction was subsiding
With each word that slipped my tongue.
That was enough.
Enough to help you get on the right path…
Enough to bring your smile back…
Enough for you to enjoy life in its finest essence…
Enough for you to leave me behind…
I was, am, and always will be “that guy” who gave you good advice,
And, of course, never the man that you fell in love with.
You will always...

Keep your beautiful personality, because without it, the world will crash and burn… My world will crash and burn.

After all of the things that I have been through, you have revived me both spiritually and emotionally.

Yes, I have fallen for you and I’ve no goddamn reason why.

Leave all of your negativity and problems behind you.  You deserve so much better.

All I can think about is you, but I won’t say anything. There’s nothing easy about taking the easy way out.

Sometimes I wonder what runs through your mind.
As I ran my fingers through your hair,
I’d hoped to see you smile.
Nothing…
Once, we looked each other in the eyes,
And you said that you couldn’t stop smiling.
It’s funny
Because it made me smile too.
The only difference is that you don’t love me
Like I love you,
And that hurts…
