Be Significant

““If I can’t have you I’ll walk this life alone.””

“Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.”

“I can’t think of a better way to revenge someone who tried to break you, than to live and love life more without them.”

“I was fifteen years old when you caught me by my hair and pulled until strands came out, starting one by one, slowly morphing into clumps intertwined between my fingers like our limbs on a cold night. Was fifteen not too young for you and your dark, twisted ways? Slowly my skin became your canvas and you never hesitated to paint me black when the weather in your mind was unkind, but you were sorry every time and I forgave you every time because I do what I’m told. I was thrown away, thrown down stairs for you, I broke my heart for you but I was fifteen years old and I couldn’t see what a natural disaster I could be. You were my darkness and it was that which took hold of me, fifteen years old, but you had a smile of silk and eyes of sunset. You radiated silver and gold and, God, how I craved your hands in my hair, ripping and tearing at dry ends. You were fire and ice and I forgot how to survive when you stood next to me; if you weren’t perfect then nothing could be real again. And I was fifteen years old when I was taught nothing was real. I worshiped you and you left me burning. I’m still burning in the same flame you sparked when I was fifteen.”
