Just Lie

I don't want to know the truth, so please just lie.

Say that you'll call me at night, just like old times to assure me that everything is alright.
Am I still the only one that you truly want?
Will you hold my hand, just like you did when we first met?
Do you still feel the same?
After all this time, am I still on your mind?

Can we forget that we ever needed space, because we both know we don't have any more time left to waste.
Am I still pretty?
How about beautiful?
Is my smile still something that motivates you to get up each day even after all this pain?
Do you still want to be the guy who gets down on one knee in front of me?

I wonder if you wonder would life would be like if things had played out differently.
When it comes to you and me, do you remember everything?
Are you ready for a final goodbye?
How do you really feel inside?
When you make it to the bottom of your bottles, do you still think of me?

I'm scared to know the truth.

So lie.

Will you tell me only want my heart wants me to hear?
Tell me that you're always gonna be right here and that you're never going anywhere.
Hit me with those three words, will you say it to me now?
To see you walk away, to hear you say your final goodbye.
I'm not ready.
I don't want to let go.

Tell me this is a bad dream.

Just lie.

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.
