Vriendschap is als prikkeldraad
je raakt er makkelijk aan vast
maar als je wordt losgerukt
doet het verdomd veel pijn.

I hope that one day, you'll come to realize
how perfect you are, when seen through my eyes

Ik zag je op een afstand
maar kwam nooit dichterbij
want wat nooit gebeurd is
gaat ook nooit voorbij...

Don't walk in front of me
I may not follow
Don't walk behind me
I may not lead
walk beside me
and just be my friend

To all the secret writers, late-night painters, would-be singers, lapsed and scared artists of every stripe, dig out your paintbrush, or your flute, or your dancing shoes. Pull out your camera or your computer or your pottery wheel. Today, tonight, after the kids are in bed when your homework is done, or instead of one more video game or magazine, create something, anything

They say that the hardest goodbye is the one unexplained. A sudden stop without any argument. People no longer have the audacity to stay “faithfully” in a relationship or even have the guts to finally commit. These are the ones you call “almost-had-you-relationship”, for me this is the hardest. You’re not officially a couple but you do what normal couples do, or you wish. It’s standing on a cliff, and maybe your in the position who wants to take that jump but you’re not really sure whether the other person will take the jump with you. The uncertainties of him/her waking up one morning and realizing that “this” is not what he or she wants anymore.

No assurance, you’re always second-guessing and at the end of it all, one leaves without a care in the world while the other one with a shattered heart. It’s the awkwardness when people ask you what’s your relationship and you know within yourself you don’t literally know

I want to be magic. I want to touch the heart of the world and make it smile. I want to be a friend of elves and live in a tree. Or under a hill. I want to marry a moonbeam and hear the stars sing. I don’t want to pretend at magic anymore. I want to be magic.

My head is currently a horrible place to be

And I'd give up forever to touch you
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

I want to get the chance to shine; not infront of a crowd, not by being famous. I want to shine from the inside out, and I want it to come from happiness and love and promise and clarity. I dont want to do it for you or for anyone else. I want to do it for myself, I want it to matter, and I want to get lost in it. I want to look back on my young years and see a blur of happiness, colors, love and fun. I want to be able to smile and say, I had my chance to shine, and I took it.

People said I’ve changed so much. Well, here’s the honest truth. I grew up. I stopped letting people push me around all the time. I learned that you can’t always be happy. I accepted reality.

You cannot go back in time, even if you wish it with every fiber
of your being, your heart and soul, even if you think about it every day.
Trust me. I know.

If being crazy means living life as if it matters,
then I don't mind being completely insane

Getting what you deserve is totally unfair

But if your life becomes a struggle for acceptance, you'll always be unhappy.

Athazagoraphobia- Fear of being forgotten

I don't want the stars & the moon
just someone to lay under them with.

Know that I'll always love you. No matter what.
Nothing on this earth will ever change that fact.
Even if you moved to Alaska, I'd move too
and become and eskimo with you

There's a story behind every person. There's a reason why they're the way
they are. They aren't just like that because they want to be. Something
in the past created them, and sometimes it's impossible to fix

Sometimes the only thing people see is what you did.
When in fact, they should be looking at why you did it.

There are just certain things in life that are better
off unknown, things you wish you never asked,
never saw, never heard, and never even felt

Never let anyone take away your smile.

All endings are also beginnings.

The pain you feel today will be
the strength you feel tomorrow.

Sometimes you just have to realize that you can't have it all.
You can't fix what you've done. You need to move on and try
to be happy. Even if it's the hardest thing you'll ever have to do

life`s full of risks.
take them, because you'll
never know what could have
happened if you dont.

when the world says give up
hope whispers one more try

today is where your book begins
&& the rest is still unwritten

&. the hardest battle;
is the one to believe in yourself

Sometimes, all it takes is someone who looks forward to seeing you

If you're sick of bad things happening to you,
stop putting up with it and demand better

basically i'm overbooked --
no emotional vacancy

one of the worst feelings in the world is having to
doubt something you thought was unquestionable

i'm so tired but i can't sleep
standin' on the edge of something much
too deep, it's funny how we feel so much
but we cannot say a word. we are screaming
inside but we can't be heard

every cover of every book is different.

every person is different and no one is perfect.
just that certain boy and girl are perfect for eachother

the true beauty of life, i believe,
is the everyday challenges && struggles
we have to overcome.
when we triumph over them,
even for a brief second,
we are truly happy

The trouble with miracles is they don't last long,
and the trouble with hard times is
that you can't sleep through them

life is like a million pictures in a
photo album, you can remember it;
but you can never recapture it

i don't want to talk about it
i don't want a conversation
i just want to cry in front of you.

Nobody takes a picture of something they want to forget.

you`re just a sad song
with nothing to say

People are gonna disappoint you.
I get that - I accept that.
But what if you wake up one morning,
and realize that you`re the disappointment?

ask my friends -- they'll tell you,
whenever you come up in a conversation,
no matter what is said, my eyes sparkle
and my smile shines brighter than ever

I look at you
and I see something magical,
so amazing that makes me
fall for you over and over again.
I look at you and see
something so tempting
that makes me want you even more.
I look at you and see something
that I can't be without.

I felt something catch in my throat, a sudden urge
of sadness. It caught me unaware, almost taking my breath away.
that was the thing; you never get used to it,
the idea of something being gone.
Just when you think it's reconciled and accepted,
someone points it out to you and it just hits you all over again.

I'm desperately searching for a reason behind all of this.

Just because I finally got over you,
doesn't mean there aren't days
when it all comes rushing back.

please. don't give up on me.
if i lose you, i'll have nothing.
and i don't want that.
so, if i have you,
i'll be okay.

you gave me plenty of memories,
memories that i now hate

We are all a little damaged,
some of us hide it better than others
but on some level we are all torn up.
we take it out on others,
and beat through life carrying it all
& we will end up damaging someone else
and most of the time we won't notice, nor care,
because we are too busy with
our own little disaster.

Hate is only for people who have
never experienced the love of
someone true and faithful.

You need to understand pain
to understand practically anything else.

She reads the entire dictionary,
but not one word can describe how she feels

And he says that he didn't plan
to fall in love with her, but maybe love
isn't something you can plan

Tears that always run
fill the gaps in my heart that never mend.

What we have here is a dreamer.
Someone completely out of touch with reality.
When she jumped, she probably thought she would fly

You must be a good runner,
because you're always running on my mind.
You must be a great thief,
because you've stolen my heart.
But I must be a horrible shooter,
because I miss you always.

friendship is like a violin;
the music may stop now and then,
but the strings will last forever...

It only hurts when your eyes are open...

please don't fade away
i need you.

do not let your fire go out,
spark by irreplaceable spark,
in the hopeless swamps of the approximate,
the not-quite, the not-yet, the not-at-all.
do not let the hero in your soul perish, in lonely frustration for the life you deserved
but have never been able to reach.
check your road and the nature of your battle.
the world your desired can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible.
its yours.

The most beautiful discovery true friends make
is that they can grow separately
without growing apart

I get the best feeling in the world when you say hi
or even smile at me
because I know
even if it's just for one second
that I've crossed your mind
