The Past

I would have made you cry.

36
The Past
Tribecca Mize

Part 1

You would have loved the old me.
You would have loved the things I could do and be.
Having you wonder where I am and where I could be.
You would have loved to see me.
Looking in your eyes making you believe I was everything you wanted me to be.
I would have kept dark secrets behind those eyes, I would have told lies, so many lies.
I would have made you cry.
You would love me because you could never figure out why.

Part 2

What’s wrong with her heart?
She said she loved me from the start.
I’m going through her phone, there’s been guys there all along.
2 years I spent with her. Met with family, friends, I showed her love, I let her in.
She corrupted me she did.
Twisted, wicked, cruel is what she is, evil is what she did.
Darkness resides in her.
I’m drawn to it.
She loved me the wrong way & now I’m into it.

Part 3

Brokenness lives here. Next to it is pain and fear.
We control her and what’s inside.
She cries and never releases. We have torn her heart into pieces
We have corrupted her mind, and made her believe in this.
Gave her a home and named it wickedness.

Part 4

Bring all the past into present.
Learn from it, there someone new who hasn’t felt it.
Her pain her scorn, nothing you’ve dealt with.
She gives all that to God, but you are selfish.
She gives you her best and you take it for granted.
Not knowing her past the evil she was possessed with.
You are someone new, someone that got protected.
She hates that you didn’t see the new her, now she regrets it.

Part 5

She says to herself, “You would have loved the old me.
You would have loved the things I could do and be.
Having you wonder where I am and where I could be.
You would have loved to see me.
Looking in your eyes making you believe I was everything you wanted me to be.
I would have kept dark secrets behind those eyes, I would have told lies, so many lies.
I would have made you cry.
You would love me because you could never figure out why.”

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
