I would know if I should hold on to you and keep going or just let it all end before I get up too high.--- samrushing

I miss all the little things. Like him driving with his hand resting on my knee and the way we'd share a big gooey ice cream. But I especially miss the hot nights in those motel rooms when he was all around me, the taste, and the scent and the feel of him. And I'd fall asleep in his arms, with the sound of his heartbeat being the last thing I heard before going to sleep. I ache with longing.

You and me are inevitable, you're all that makes me happy but if you break my heart again, I'll kill you.

Love hurts. I say that because I know. Love is... or was amazing. It's an incredible feeling to know what he's going to say. It's more incredible the way he has me on the edge of my seat because he's so completely random, I never know what's coming next. It's hard to explain, but he filled some void in me, and now, without him, I'm missing something again. I wonder if it will ever truly, whole heartedly be filled again. I just don't want to know what it's like to hurt any more...

I've been laying here all night, listening to the rain. Talking to my heart and trying to explain. Why sometimes I catch myself wondering what might have been. Yes I do think about you, every now and then.

In this weird twisted way, I know you miss me liking you, not because I want to believe it's true, but because you'll never find a girl that can put up with you like I did; you'll never find a girl who will care as much as I did, because no one will waste all there love on someone like you, like I did.

I didn't ask for it to be over, but then again, I didn't ask for it to begin. For that's the way it is with life, as some of the most beautiful days come completely by chance. But even the most beautiful days eventually have their sunsets.

I wish I saved all the tears I cried for you so I could fucking drown you in them.I tried to hold onto what we had, but you didn't even make an effort. You lied you cheated and left me to cry all alone once again. And when I return looking more beautiful and confident than ever before all I want you to realize is what you had and what you will never have again. --- birdie565

The tough thing about following you heart is that people forget to mention that sometimes the heart takes you to places you shouldn't be. Places that are scary as they are exciting and as dangerous as they are alluring. Sometimes your heart cannot take you to places that lead to happy ending. That's not even the difficult part; the difficult part is when you follow your heart, you leave normal; you go into the unknown and once you do you can never go back.

Am I mad at you? That's your main concern after shattering my whole world? Mad for what? Breaking my heart? Or for all the lies? Maybe for letting me put all my trust in you only to be betrayed? How about the fact you didn't even have the decency to tell me to my face? Or the way you think it's crazy that I'm crying over it cause to you breaking up is no big deal. Am I mad at you?... no. More like crushed... did I ever really know you?

It's really painful to say goodbye to someone that you don't want to let go but its even more painful to ask someone to stay if they never wanted to stay.

I was never one to patiently pick up broken fragments and glue them together again and tell myself that the mending whole was good as new. What is broken is broken - and I'd rather remember it as it was at its best than mend it and see the broken places as long as I lived.

A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.

take really, and I don't really want to find out either.
Love is a perky elf dancing a merry little jig and then suddenly he turns on you with a miniature machine gun.

Let me ruin your life, let me break your heart, then I'll ask you why we can't be friends. Let me rip your world into little pieces, let me destroy who you thought you were, and then I'll ask if we can be friends.

I just want someone to come up to me and kiss me and tell me that they're in love with me. I don't just want it though. I need it. I'm desperate for it.
It's like once you've been hurt, you're so scared to get attached again. you have this fear that every person you start to fall for, is just going to break your heart again.

Make me stay. Say something sweet and tender and untrue and make me stay. 

The hardest thing about knowing you don't love me
is that you spent so much time pretending that you did.

Like being in love there must be a corresponding painful side like losing in love, it's just a fact of life. --- Daria

If I asked him, would he even know the color of my eyes?

There's only one "reason" a man dumps you; he doesn't want you.
You really know you love someone when all you want is for them to be happy, even if that means that you are not a part of it.
It's not my fault if I can't help looking at you. It's not my fault if I can't stop calling you. It's not my fault I do like you. My only mistake was to fall to much in love with you.
Sometimes - no matter how long, or how much you love someone, they will never love you back and somehow you have to learn to be okay with that.
If your gonna make me cry, at least be there to wipe away the tears.
I'm holding on to something that used to be there hoping it will come back, knowing it won't.
I want you to know that you will never find another girl that will put up with as much crap as I do and enjoy it. You will never find another girl that will put up with you and love you the way I do. Just so you know.
There's always that one special person that no matter what they do to you, you just cant let them go.
At first, I cried because I didn't have you why do I still cry now that I do?
How could you make me love you and then not be there to love me back?
I sit here and think about everything that happened this past week and not a single tear runs down my cheek. Maybe its because I'm too hurt to cry, or maybe I'm just to mad at you.
Maybe just maybe its my hearts way of telling me this isn't over yet.
What do you do when the only person who can stop your tears is the one making you cry.
I'd like to think I'll be happy again, but I really need to just stop and cry now, and sometimes I wish I could just scream at you, and show you what you do to me.
And even though you lied, and even though you pretended to care I can't seem to get you out of my mind and even though it seems like I should be over you, with every tear that falls, it reminds me of how much I am still in love with 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 youd die if they did?
I've been through this pain before I've even cried these tears before but to get you back, I'd go through so much more.
I'm going to smile like nothings wrong, talk like everythings perfect, act like its just a dream and pretend that he's not hurting me.
The truth of the matter is, I still have feelings for you. And no matter how many times I tell myself that I'm better off with out you, a part of me just won't let go.
I know I made a lot of stupid mistakes in my life, but the worst one was thinking the person who hurt me the most wouldn't hurt me again.
I feel like I am sitting in a room full of people that I love, and you know what, they just don't care that I love them. They don't care whether or not I live or die. To them I'm just another girl, just another stranger. To me, they are my best friends, the only people I have left.
I'm scared to fall in love, scared to fall fast, because every time I fall in love, it never seems to last.
You're the reason I live and the reason I die, you're the reason
I smile yet break down and cry, you're the reason I keep going and the reason I fall, cause without you in my life I'm nothing at all.
I have waited for you for 2 years and I will wait for you for the rest of my life. Even if that means I have to give you up for the rest of my life, I will wait for you. I love you that much and nothing will ever change that.
I'm gonna smile, because I wanna make you happy, laugh, so you won't see me cry. I'm gonna let you go in style, and even if it kills me, I'm gonna smile.
Love? It's kind of complicated, but I'll tell you this the second you're willing to make yourself miserable to make someone else happy, that's love right there.You fuck me, then stub me. You love me, you hate me. You show me a sensitive side, then you turn into a total asshole. Is this a pretty accurate description of our relationship. (This was just how me and my now ex boyfriend were.)
You asked me what was wrong, I smiled and said nothing, when you turned around and a tear came down and I whispered to myself everything is.
I am in love with the man I can't have and I have the man I can't love.
I would have followed him to hell if he asked me to and with all he put me through, maybe I did.
I used to think that if I loved you enough you would realize it and love me back, but I can only love so much for so long.
Do I really love him or am I addicted to the pain of wanting something I can't have.I love you yet I hate you its like I want to throw you off a cliff and then run really fast to the bottom and catch you. (this is me and my friend Kevin)
I don't know which is worse, keeping your love for someone a secret or telling them and risk being rejected.
I don't know which is worse, loving someone knowing its going to cause you pain or being in pain because you can't love
someone.
It hurts to realize that them people you thought you'd love for life don't love you as much as you thought they did and can do without you as if they never knew you at all.
It seems to me that the harder I try the harder I fall.
Ever notice that the people who hurt you the most are the ones you tend to love more.
It's funny the way you can get use to the tears and the pain.
No more crying, I can't cry anymore. Don't take my hand this time. Just go please and don't look back, because I know if you did, I'd come running back to you and I can't do that.
I'm glad you're happy. I can't say that I'm completely happy for you but I guess that's just a part of life, I'll always have feelings for you but the rest of the world is forcing me to move on.
I would rather leave now still loving you then to leave later hating you.
I hate the way I could never hate you.
I want to cry, I really do, but I guess I just don't want to give you the satisfaction of knowing that you hurt me once again.
I remember when I still believed the things you said.
You can't just cling on to something because it's familiar.
Difficult or easy, pleasant or bitter, you are the same you; I cannot live, with or without you.
This time its over I'm keeping my heart, I'm gonna be strong and not fall apart it'll get better, I'll no longer cryin a couple of weeks I won't want to die, I won't want to go back. I'll be able to sleep, it won't hurt so bad and it won't hurt so deep!
It hurts to see someone you love ignoring you, it also hurts to see that he doesn't feel your love. But it hurts even more to
know that he loves you too, and just doesn't want you to know.
Love is when someone hurts you. And you get so mad but you don't yell at them because you know it would hurt their feelings.
