Everything about you screamed danger.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But that's what got me hooked. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I grew up surrounded by a safety net.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Never really worried about falling, or getting hurt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But you cut your way into my life</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And at first it was blissful,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The adventure taking me by storm.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I was so lost in the excitement of you,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That I didn't notice the scissors in your hand.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Before I knew it I was falling through my safety net,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plummeting into a world of hurt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I fell for you. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But you were too busy sabotaging my net,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To catch me before I got hurt.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And here I lay, alone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I weep for the girl I lost in trying to love you</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For loving you, meant hating myself.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I never saw the danger of giving my all,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Until I had nothing left to give anymore.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I weep for the girl you've lost.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For she would have given you the world</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">And asked for little in return</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">You never saw how hard she tried</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">To be enough for you while holding on herself.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I weep for us both.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For we may never find this girl again.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">She still appears from time to time</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">But vanishes at the blink of an eye.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">I weep for the love that was lost</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> And the love that was yet to be found.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For we may never know</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">The greatness that could have come.</span></div>

I want you to breathe. I want you to close your eyes and inhale deeply, allow the oxygen to fill your lungs to full capacity. Now, slowly release. Whatever it is you're worried about right now, will work itself out. Don't strain yourself trying to work through everything. Take another breath. You're going to make it through this. Whatever it is you're going through, you will see it to the end. Now open your eyes and look at yourself. You are stronger than whatever it is weighing down on you. You will make it.</div>

Opportunities arise at the craziest of times. You must be constantly ready to embrace each one or risk the chance of losing it. Some opportunities bring great fortune and a sigh of relief, while others bring lessons in which we bit our tongue and endure the pain. You'll never know which option you will receive, so prepare for both.</div>

I often wonder if I walk around with a sign on my forehead that says,"go ahead and play me because I'll give you every opportunity to do so". It's not that I'm stupid and naive, I'd say, just more so trusting. I want to trust that you honestly care for me the way you claim to. And I honestly want to believe all the things you whisper to me late at night. When you tell me about how much you love me and how you couldn't imagine your life without me in it. I want to believe that I wasn't just some connivence in your life. I <i>want </i>to believe. <i>Want</i> to. But once again, I'm shown that I shouldn't. You see, I only want to believe these thing because I want to connive myself that things are finally different and that for once I might actually have a shot at love. But I can't trust that you'll want the same thing as me. I can't trust that you'll have the same decency as me. Or the same capability to love. I can't trust<i> you.</i></div>

Why do your four years after high school, feel so incredibly pressured? Its like the entire weight of your existence is relying on how well you do in these four years. How well you do in college, internships, career fields, relationships, wealth and so on. You're constantly wondering if you're doing the right thing and if any of this is really going to be worth it in the end. You're afraid that in the end you'll come up short or not truly be happy with what you're doing. The pressure to amount to something is detrimental. Failure is your worst fear. You're wondering what your next step is and the best possible way to get there. All while, trying to live your life and make connections with people. What's the rush honestly? We seem to be racing toward adulthood, without truly enjoying what's left of our young days. But for what? Adulthood will always be there, waiting. But our youth? That's fleeing right from under us. Why do we live for the future, when we should live for now.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
And I'm sorry for the mean way I looked at pictures of you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sorry for making you cry yourself to sleep more often then you should.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I'm sorry for not supporting you when no one else did.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sorry for the things I've put you through,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Making you feel small, unloved and worthless.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sorry that I cared more of how people saw you, than who you were.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm sorry I never saw the potential in you.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I'm sorry it's taken me this long to write this.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But most of all, I'm sorry I didn't love you like I should have.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Sincerely, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Michaela</div>

One day I will be perfectly content with who I am.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will wake up each morning not afraid to look in the mirror.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I won't feel the need to paint my face with contour or highlight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I surely, won't grab onto the fat of my cheeks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will look at my reflection, with complete contentedness.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will no longer hate my face.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I won't feel ashamed walking on the beach in a bikini.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will wear what I wanted and not what others decide looks best.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I won't suck in my stomach until my back ached.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And I definitely will not squeeze into a small size just to avoid the plus.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will no longer hate my body.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I won't become silent around new people.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will talk to whom I wish to and avoid who I want.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will no longer create fake laughs to mask my own.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will say what I'm feeling, no longer allowing myself to be walked over.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will no longer hate my voice. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And most importantly, I will not allow someone to tell me what I am capable of.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will no longer hear their criticism over my own thoughts and ideas.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will believe in myself, even when others have given up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will push myself further, while others let go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will be there for me when no one else is seen.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Today, I am beginning my journey of self love.</div>

Life just loves throwing curve balls, doesn't it? January seemed like a promising start to the year 2018. Things were finally going my way and I was beginning to feel what happiness was like. I got the sweet taste of things going right for once, and I took it for granted. January flew by so quickly, I swear I got whiplash. But even quicker was the reality check of February. I was so caught up in my blissfulness that was January, feeling like 2018 was going to be my year. Then February showed up like, "guess again," as it just nailed me left and right with reality checks. But that's just life, gotta learn to roll with the punches or you'll be knocked out. So go ahead 2018, show me what you got.</div>

What are your intentions?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Are you planning to stay awhile, or leave when you get what you want?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Are you planning to be there when I need you or only when you need me?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you want to make me laugh more than cry?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or do you not even know?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because I'm tired of people coming around me with bad intentions.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My intentions are always good and pure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I never intent to hurt another or to disappoint.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yet, here we are.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My intentions have been laid out from the beginning.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Easy to see and understand.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But what about you?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You see, your intentions are never what they seem.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You claim one thing, yet act another.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You say you love me, yet love another.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why not just be honest and upfront with your intentions?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe because you're afraid my intentions aren't the same.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Maybe because they aren't.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So please, tell me again, what are your intentions with my heart?</div>

Boys come and go like seasons.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some, I wish would last a little a longer,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Others I dread their coming every year.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But still, these seasons are necessary</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the memories they hold</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And the lessons they teach.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I've always been the strong one,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In my family I was the one that would never budge.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With friends I was always there to back them up.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
At work, I was the one unafraid to speak my mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No matter where I found myself, I always put on this front.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It didn't matter what I was going through, or who I was with,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The things I felt or the thoughts racing in my mind remained there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would never unleash these fears and hurt with another.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Didn't matter how long we knew each other or how close we were</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I always had to remain a few feet away emotionally.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
People saw this as a strength, saying things like;</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"How are you always so strong and put together"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"Don't you ever get tired and just want to let off steam?"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And of course I do, but my mind and body have been trained</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hide the pain, mask the hurt and paint that smile on your face</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's always someone worse off then you</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Someone that has spoken out, yet got no help in return.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I never want someone to feel sorry for me,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or feel as though they have to be cautious with me</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because I am strong, I have gone through a lot yet I'm still here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still standing, strong and tall, awaiting the next obstacle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do not fear the hardships I have faced or the ones still to come.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What I fear is the day I am too beat down</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
By the thoughts in my head, to get up and continue this fight.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I am trying, please don't get me wrong.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I try day in and day out to open myself to others.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yet with every person I let in, I fear they will use it against me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know it's a shame to fear something so silly</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But isn't that what people do?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Find your darkest secrets to use them against you?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some of my secrets are so dark I'm not sure if even I could find them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Instead they sit there in the back of my mind waiting...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Waiting for me to fall, yet I still stand tall.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I should have known better than to believe </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">that someone of his looks couldn't deceive </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">But God did he seem so perfect</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">As though crafted just for me,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Under the fairy lights we danced away</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">As though prom night wasn't just any day.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">His eyes latched onto mine, they wouldn't leave</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The look he was giving me, I couldn't perceive. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">The looks of an angel, he had achieved</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">but for some reason, I wasn't relieved</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">For I knew he was no saint</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Although my reasoning was so faint</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">No way could he be pure</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">He had too much an allure</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I asked a question to be sure</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">Looking in his eyes, I took a breath</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">I asked him to say what was true </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">"Was God upset when he left you?"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">He smirked and my curiosity grew,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;">"No because I'm the devil's nephew."</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
