When in the hell was it that I last looked back? I do try so hard not to.
Six years ago to the day, a young girl was falling in love at a Sadie Hawkins dance; and six years ago to the morning after her heart was breaking. But she grew up and realized that nothing can last forever. That wide-eyed girl grew up in a chaotic nest with poisonous barbs instead of feathers, and when her wings were strong, leaped from the stifling home into the open blue.
I'm not done with this world yet- and I'll fight if I must to make my dreams come true. That's all this boils down to.
I've lost so much, given up so many, and been heartbroken more than once but I will not alter my course until my ambitions are fulfilled.
"Maybe one day, when we are old and our pride means nothing, I will retire with you in that place"...maybe I will. Maybe she was right.
