Sometimes I wish we could’ve rolled the dice. Took back things we said. Better yet live our life together twice.
You got to know the love I had for you was real. That’s why I don’t know why I let myself take that kind of deal.
Raw. Broke down. Super secure. I just felt like with you I was so sure. I don’t think I’ve ever came in contact with a soul so pure.
It’s your confidence, your smile and the ways you looked at me. I can’t believe I’m talking past tense like we wasn’t meant to be.
All I’m saying is I’m willing to do it. Roll the dice. Take a big chance. I’m just saying I’d give anything to just hold your hand.
Im just saying. It’s worth a chance.

Teach you
GROWN WOMAN! Teach you, how to love you, so when REAL love comes along you’re healed enough to enjoy it! I don’t think you notice HOW much more you need to be healed until you lose someone you thought you’d spend forever with.. whew…But when you do decide to change, heal, grow..do it for YOU. Do it for Future you. Present you. You that deserves to be loved.

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
