Living, Loving, Losing and Lasting

I am me, and only me. Take me as I am or watch me as I go. I'll be the one to love you the most, but trust me...I won't be the one to stick around forever for you to realize it. I dance in the rain, and cry during chick flicks. I am a girl, I am myself, there is no changing it. Accept me, or don't. I won't change for you, or anyone else. I'm a lover, not a fighter...but I will always fight for what I love and believe in. I wish, I hope, I dream. I am a girl, living this thing we call life

You watch me cry but yet you walk away. You hear me scream but you turn away. You left me to drown in my salty tears..but why? Do you not care? Have I done wrong? You left me wondering. As my tears dry, I slowly die, maybe now, you'll regret your walking away. ~Unknown

Take me as I am, or watch me as I go, cause a fake smile can hide a million tears

I might not be someone's the first choice, but I m a great choice. I may not be rich, but I am valuable. I don't pretend to be someone I'm not, because I'm good at being me. I might not be proud of some of the things I've done in the past, but I am proud of who I am today. I may not be perfect, but I don't need to be. Take me as I am, or watch me as I walk away

 

Sometimes it seems like you'd rather watch me drown, than see your hands get wet.

I’ve made mistakes in my life. I’ve let people take advantage of me, and i accepted way less than i deserve. but, I’ve learned from my bad choices and even though there are some things i can never get back and people who will never be sorry, I’ll know better next time and i won't settle for anything less than i deserve.
