Typical Things
Have you ever noticed
that the worst way to miss someone
is when they are right beside you
and yet you can never have them...
when the moment you can't feel them
under your fingertips you miss them?
Have you ever wondered which hurts the most;
saying something and wishing you had not,
or saying nothing and wishing you had?
I guess the most important things
are the hardest things to say.
They are the things you get ashamed of
because words diminish them,
words shrink things that seemed timeless
when they were in your head...
to no more than living size
when they are brought out...
Don't be afraid to tell someone
you love them.
If you do,
they might break your heart...
but if you don't,
you might break theirs.
Have you ever decided not to become a couple
because you were so afraid of losing
what you already had with that person?
Your heart decides who it likes
and who it doesn't.
You can't tell your heart what to do.
It does it on its own...
when you least suspect it,
or even when you don't want it to.
Have you ever wanted to love someone
with everything you had,
but that other person was too afraid to let you?
Too many of us stay walled
because we are too afraid
to care too much...
for fear that the other person does not care as much,
or at all.
Have you ever loved someone
and they had absolutely no idea whatsoever?
Or fell for your best-friend in the entire world,
and then sat around and watched him fall
for someone else?
Have you ever denied your feelings for someone
because your fear of rejection
was too hard to handle?
Or have you cast aside your feelings
because you thought things were impossible?
We tell lies when we are afraid...
afraid of what we don't know,
afraid of what others will think,
afraid of what will be found out about us.
But every time we tell a lie...
the thing we fear grows stronger.
Life is all about risks
and it requires you to jump.
Don't be a person who has to look back
and wonder what he/she would have,
or could have had.
Sometimes Life offers no second chance,
no one waits forever so...
Cherish the Past,
It made you what you are.
Treasure the Present,
It's a timeless gift.
Pray for the Future,
It's where hopes are fulfilled
and Dreams become Reality.
