Starts off


It started off with a hello, then a goodbye, we started off as strangers, not love, not like, not romantic relationships, but with a hello, and goodbye, it stayed like that for a while, then it turned into, hugs, and goodbyes, long talks and good times, then meeting new people, and joining the fun, then it went to confessions, your friends finding out the truth about, how you feel, then you become embarrassed, and you make a decision, "Not, right now." the avoiding, the miss calls, unanswered text messages, the hurt, the loneliness, then the day comes, when you have to come forth, and tell the truth, face your emotions, and stop feeling so bundled up, like your trapped in a box, then it comes to a fear, a fear of: rejection, acceptance, Befriended, it come to the harsh, reality, what will happen next...? it has your heart beating fast and you're hands sweating from being nervous,  stressing out, just wondering, and wondering, the truth hurts, when you think about it, "How would it feel if, the person you would take a bullet for, is the one pointing the gun at you.." It feels, like this, the feeling of rejection? fear? It has you going all crazy, but what if you are accepted and you have a relationship, what then? Soon, it will turn into, trust, but then you lose your trust, then y'all break up, and it's hard on you, cause, you can never trust this person again, but you still love that person, and you're left wondering with them on you're mind everyday, then you feel lost, unable to control, the feeling, of exploring, the thoughts of you're brain.....But, think about it, You're Beautiful, unique, Handsome, bright, fun, Outrageously Hilarious, most of all, you are you. Who needs that, special someone, you have those people around you, and those people are enough, single, or not, always remember, its whats inside that counts, forget the haters, you're a bright shining spark, you're a BRIGHT firework, you light up the sky, as the people below, left amazed, and happy down where they stand, because you light up a spark in them, and give them strength, Just be you, that's who you need.
