It hits me while I’m walking home;
I haven’t spent more than a day with you in two years.

Odds are, the thing that’s keeping you up at night right now, won’t matter in a month. Remember that.

You used to tell me every time I left you,
you missed me already.
One time you didn’t so I figured you were dead,
or you stopped loving me.

Love doesn’t come when you have it all together, love may come when you just got out of a complicated relationship, and you are swearing off men. Love may come when you are transferring jobs out of state.

I fell for poetry before I fell for you.

“Are you seeing anyone?” My friend asks, I say, “Well I’m kinda with someone.” I always seem to answer that burning question the same.

5. Spend time with people that will drop everything to help you.

7. Your friends will probably talk about poop more than anything else.
