Princess Restless

I.
Princess Restless,
Go to sleep.
Dream of happy things.
Don't dream of me.
Princess Restless,
I want you to know
Take your heart with you
Wherever you go.
Princess Restless,
You'll always be my girl.
So go to sleep now.
Escape from the hurt.

II.
She's the girl with her hands in her pockets, biting her lip, looking at her feet. She's the girl you never loved back.

III.
I wish you'd said, no, you never loved me. Sure, it would've hurt like hell at first but I would've healed. Now, instead, I'm just sitting on my couch, wondering if you ever think about me the way I think of you and I have no way of knowing.

IV.
All I ever here: Be a good girl. Never be late. Just behave. Sit up straight. Stand up tall. Never falter. Never fall. Stay in school. Make the grade. Never fail. Never fade. Be a hero. Be a star. Be everything except what you are.

V.
You think this times going to be different? Well, I really hope you're right.

VI.
Close your eyes. Clear your heart. Let it go.

VII.
Hey unfaithful, I will teach you to be stronger.
Hey ungraceful, I will teach you to forgive one another.
Hey unloving, I will love you.

VIII.
Because lately, I keep hearing people blaming love. But love doesn't walk away, people do.

IV.
Go ahead. Leave me like you always do. I'm ready this time.

V.
There's always something left if two people really loved each other.

Dedicated to Anna.

One...
When I was in elementary school they asked me to write a paragraph on what I wanted to be when I grew up. I told them happy. They said I didn't understand the assignment. I told them that they didn't understand my life.

Two...
The problem is that you couldn't have one without the other. There couldn't be a bad guy without a good guy to set a standard. There couldn't be a good guy without a bad guy to show all the little children how far off the path you can stray.

Three...
She's been through more than the average girl can take. If you ask her, she will say its all in the past and she's never looking back but you can tell in her eyes that she promised herself to never deal with stuff like that again.

Four...
Yes, I am smart but that makes me want to cheat life. Yes, I am gorgeous but that makes me want to play around. Yes, I am artistic but that means I'm destined to be tortured. And yes, I did have a hard life but that just means I'm strong enough to deal with all the horrible things my "gifts" will bring.

Five...
"Sometimes its better to be alone."
"What do you mean?"
"No one can hurt you." -Hercules

Six...
"The past can't hurt you..." She whispered to her best friend. "Unless you let it."

Seven...
When all is lost, the future still remains.

Eight...
I don't care about your past. All I want to know is if there's a place for me in your future. - Sweet Home Alabama

Nine...
He stayed in the middle of the road for a long time, trying to catch his breath, hoping she woul turn around and come back to him, wishing he hadn't let her go. Wishing for one more chance."

Ten...
Nobody said it was easy, they just said it was worth it.

I don't know what I want, so don't ask me.

One.
I want to be the kind of girl who leaves an everlasting impression. I don't want to be the type you forget in a week. I want to have the kind of impact on someone when they know they'll never find anyone else who could take my place.

Two.
Think of me as you undo her dress. I hope you hear my voice as you kiss her neck and as lust is screaming for release... I hope to God you're thinking of me.

Three.
The people who are crazy enough to think they will make a difference are the ones who do.

Four.
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with everything they have.

Five.
Just remember, when life's knocked you down on your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray.

Six.
Apply that lipgloss like its your job. You know you are his heart throb.

Seven.
Wherever you go, go with all your heart.

Eight.
Because when push comes to shove you find what you're made of. From your knees, you look up. Decide you've had enough. You get mad. You get strong. Wipe your hands. Shake it off. Then, you stand.

Nine.
Speak your mind, even if your voice shakes.

Ten.
You can always tell how much you love someone by their ability to hurt you.

If I could fall into the sky.

.enO
We are the makers of music and the dreamers of dreams. - Willy Wonka
.owT
It seems like when I'm finally happy, someone decides to say, "Whoa. She's happy again. Let's crush it."
.eerhT
What do you do when your dreams don't come true? Dream a better dream.
.ruoF
What if we already met the right person but just weren't ready to fall in love?
.eviF
The more you get to know a person, the more attractive they become to you, because everything you see that's beautiful on the inside suddenly you're able to see on the outside too.
.xiS
You go your way and I'll go mine, and if we end up back in each other's lives, it will be beautiful.
.neveS
A guy and a girl can just be friends, but at one point or another they will fall for each other. Maybe just temporarily, or maybe at the wrong time, or maybe too late. Maybe forever. Sure they won't say things, but that doesn't mean they don't feel them. *

We wonder why black and white photos capture our soul. I think it's because without color, we aren't drawn to the makeup and color of our eyes, or our hair, or how tan our skin is. Black and white captures the innocence on one's face and the hurt they've gone through to feel vulnerability. The glow we see comes from inside, brightening our eyes, our skin, and our smile. It grabs the truth that liberates us.
.eniN
In this world, people are going to say don't do this, don't do this, don't do this. You know what you're going to end up with? Nothing to do.
.neT
God doesn't give you the people you want- he gives you the people you need. To help you, to hurt you, to love you, to leave you and to make you into the person you were meant to become.

This is tearing me apart.

One.
I want to be the kind of girl who leaves an everlasting impression. I don't want to be the type you forget in a week. I want to have the kind of impact on someone when they know they'll never find anyone else who could ever take my place.

Two.
Think of me as you undo her dress. I hope you hear my voice as you kiss her neck and as lust is screaming for release... I hope to God you're remembering me.

Three.
Because the people who are crazy enough to think they can change the worlds are the ones who do.

Four.
Just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to doesn't mean they don't love you with everything they have.

Five.
Just remember, when life's knocked you down on your knees, you're in the perfect position to pray.

Six.
"Your teacher was wondering if you'd like to play the piano in your school concert."
"Can you hear music from heaven?"
"Yes.. You can."
"Then yes, mommy, i do."

Seven.
Wherever you go, go with all of your heart.

Eight.
'Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you're made of. On your knees you look and decide you've had enough. You get mad. You get strong. Wipe your hands, shake it off. Then you stand.

Nine.
Speak your mind, even if your voice shakes.

Ten.
"Where can I put this?"
"What is it?"
"An award for outstanding intelligence in areas other than academics."
"Show me an award that proves you're not a total screw up and then we'll talk"

Staring blankly ahead, just making my way.

1. This love is taking its toll on me. She's said goodbye too many times before.
2. Cinderella walked on broken glass, Sleeping Beauty let a whole lifetime pass. Belle fell in love with a hideous beast, Jasmine married a common thief, Ariel walked on land for love and life, Snow white barely escaped a knife. It was all about blood, sweat, and tears because love means facing your biggest fears.
3. I like to see people reunited, I like to see people run to each other, I like the kissing and the crying, I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can't tell fast enough, the ears that aren't big enough, the eyes that can't take in all of the change, I like the hugging, the bringing together, the end of missing someone.
4. And ultimately, he's going to find out. How you chew, how you sip, how you dance, how you smell at every point in the day. The fact that most of your friends are shallow. That you hate sitting in an aisle seat. How you don't really like chocolate, how you get hyper when you travel, how certain games or shows make you really happy. How cranky you get when you're tired, how you think you look bad in all of your pictures. He's going to know everything about you. And you know what? He's still going to love you.
5. Everyone has their weak spots. The one thing that despite your best efforts, will always bring
you to your knees, regardless of how strong you are otherwise.
6.If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there.
7. Her: It's beautiful, you'll cry. Him: Beautiful things don't make me cry. I never cry when I see you.
8. In this digital "photoshop" world, imperfections come across as quite beautiful.
9. Sad thing is, you can love someone and still be wrong for them. - Elvis Presley.
10. When a good person dies, there should be an impact on the world. Somebody should notice, somebody should be upset.

You will always, always be my girl.

One.
The thing about him is that every time I talk to him, I fall in love with him again. But that's not all that happens. The rejection comes back and the heartache and the wishing that I was more like her...

Two.
My plan is to forgive and forget. Forgive myself for every loving you and forgetting you ever hurt me.

Three.
I just figured it out. I'm not meant to love someone like him. Someone who will be there for me and be faithful and love only me. I'm meant to find and fall in love with someone just like me. Someone who will love me when I love them and love others when I love others. Someone who understands. I would understand.

Four.
Just because a person does a horrible thing doesn't mean they're a horrible person.

Five.
Heroes are made, not born.

Six.
A heart is a fragile thing. And some hearts seem more fragile than others. Like crystals in a world of glass. Even the way they shatter is beautiful.

Seven.
Whatever doesn't kill you will probably try again.

Eight.
I never gave up on you but you're slowly pushing me in that direction.

Nine.
One day, someone will walk into your life and you'll realize why it never worked out with anyone else.

Ten.
As long as the music's loud enough, we won't hear our life fall apart.

Riding in, stealing Cinderella.

One. The secret to being happy is not having everything be perfect. It's seeing past the imperfections.

Two. So lets go on pretending we're something we're not. That seems to be the trend these days. Lets pretend we're in love, but, between you and me, that's as close as we'll ever get.

Three. You're not crazy until you have to hold onto the grass to keep from falling off the earth.

Four. We sat there, staring in each others' eyes. It was weird, being just friends again. I knew you wanted me just like I wanted you but I knew you didn't want me to break your heart just like I didn't want to break yours. It was weird.

Five. Because you're hoping you're wrong. Everytime he does something wrong, that tells you he's no good, you ignore it. And everytime he comes through and surprises you, you fall for him again and you win that never-ending argument with yourself. The one that's over whether he's worth it or not.

Six. Stranger things have happened. Stranger things have been loved.

Seven. I just got it. I just finally understood. That deep, dark, bad side of you isn't secret at all. God knows it better than you do and he admires you for not living it.

Eight. You're just a girl all the boys want to dance with and I'm just a boy taking too many chances.

Nine. You said you'd keep me honest but I won't call you on it.

Ten. "Don't you dare lay a hand on her!" "What if she wants me to?"

But you'll get this shiny, new, stone heart instead.

OnE. Sometimes, finding the love of your life means losing the life you love.

TwO. Sometimes you just have to let them win because losing the argument is a lot less important than losing them.

THrEE. (C)
Street lights are up.
The sun has set long ago.
I take your hand.
You whisper, "I'm scared."
"Of what?" I ask in return.
"The demons I see in your eyes."

FouR. Black ink touches the paper as you find somewhere to put your thoughts. So don't be afraid of the words that fall; they're only stories of a shattered heart, after all.

FivE. Jealousy hurts. Walking away hurts. Being forgotten hurts. However, what hurts the most is being alone through the whole thing.

SiX. She's falling hard for a boy with a bad reputation. But that doesn't matter. When they're together, he's nothing like they say.

SEvEN. We have a very odd relationship. We'll go a month without talking then, one text later and we're spilling our hearts out. Strangest though, is that I don't mind.

EIgHT. Here's to lying, stealing, cheating and drinking. If you must lie, lie with the one you love. If you must steal, steal away from bad company. If you must cheat, cheat death. And if you must drink, drink to the moments that take your breath away.

NinE. "I don't think you're leaving." She said strongly, with such conviction it seemed to tap my untouchable heart of stone. "I think you're running. But what confuses me, is I don't know if you're running towards something you want or away from something you're afraid of wanting."

TeN. But if you want to leave me, you can. I'll remember you though. I remember everyone that leaves.
