If you’ve ever
tried to fight tears on the bus
ride home, and failed.
If you’ve ever lied about why your eyes were glazed
over,
and you were believed.
This one’s for
you.
If you’ve ever stopped listening to your favorite band
because he liked them too.
If you’ve ever hated a girl you didn’t know
because he picked her over you.
This one’s for
you.
If you’ve ever wished you were weak enough to cry in
public.
If you’ve ever constantly hid behind laughter and
smiles.
This one’s for
you.
If you’ve ever bit your lip to stop it from quivering.
If you’ve ever walked with your eyes planted on the
ground.
This one’s for
you.
If you’ve ever stared into the darkness before sleep,
trying to avoid the ‘what’s if’s’ and
‘if only’s’.
If you’ve ever listened to totally different music,
but ended up thinking about him anyway.
This one’s for
you.
The girl who doesn’t get the guy.
The girl who still lives her life to the fullest she can.
The girl who gets up every day and doesn’t give up.
This one’s for
you,
because it takes
so much to be that
strong.
