Don't tell me.
mandylee740:
Don’t tell me by Shel Silverstein
Please don’t tell me I should hug
Don’t tell me I should care.
Don’t tell me just how grand I’d feel
If I just learned to share.
Don’t say, “It’s all right to cry.”
“Be Kind,” “Be Fair,” “Be True.”
Just let me see YOU do it,
Then I just might do it too.

Come up to meet you
Tell you I’m sorry
You don’t know how lovely you are
I had to find you
Tell you I need you
Tell you I set you apart
Tell me your secrets
And ask me your questions
Oh let’s go back to the start
Running in circles; coming up tails
Heads on a silence apart

Taking responsibility for my actions, as of lately, has made me stronger. Before, I would profusely blame others for my actions and most importantly my life. The imbalance of control of my own life destructed me. I need to take a stand against my will, break out of the boundaries I set for myself, and make plans. It’s time to take hold of my life, and branch out.

"Near to you" by A Fine Frenzy
He and I had something beautiful But so dysfunctional, it couldn’t last I loved him so but I let him go ‘Cause I knew he’d never love me back Such pain as this Shouldn’t have to be experienced I’m still reeling from the loss, Still a little bit delirious Near to you, I am healing But it’s taking so long ‘Cause though he’s gone And you are wonderful...

Optimism has managed to not stay in my life as often as it should. It creeps up when it’s least expected and disappears suddenly. It’s something that I’ve been craving for, specifically when school start, and I’m becoming desperate. I’ve become inseparable from my unhappiness. Like it’s attached to my hips, gasping for closeness, and running from distance....
