Sunflower Eyes and Butterfly Lies Part 3

Doll House

Sunflower Eyes and Butterfly Lies Part 3

It’s getting late…

My eyes sting

From all the tears you left me

My heart aches

With all the fears you gave me

My soul yearns

For everything that once was

You opened my wounds

You healed them

But cut deeper than they were before

Your words like a whip to my back

Grabbed me and beat me down with your sudden madness

The freckle on your lip, adoring as may be

Kisses so sweet tasting like poison honey

When I lick my lips, I taste you and your lies

Your hands always on me, holding onto me as if

I was a doll; your arm candy

That’s all I was to you

A doll to play with for a while

We played in a doll house

You in control of my every move

You in control of my joy and pain

You who once held my hands so tight, to keep them warm

You who once protected me from others

You who I trusted with my whole heart

You who taught me what a kiss was

And taught me a “different” kind of love

You left the house to play with someone else

Left me alone, all by myself

A broken doll, left on a shelf

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.
