Favorite Quote:
a wolf just sits there and howls at the moon, let the moon shine and walk away.


Fourteen years of triumph
Fourteen years of laughs
Fourteen years of memories that has already passed
Twelve years of being mad
One year of being sad
One year of surprise
Know that you can’t look me in my eyes
All those years I’ve wondered, why you can’t be here
Why I can’t hug you, so you can’t wipe away my tears
But my tear drops have gone away and replaced with a frown.
I’m not going to cry over you, knowing you can’t hold it down.
For fourteen years I’ve waited, but my patience has run out.
I stopped believing lies, and stopped trying to doubt
Doubt the fact that you’ll come back.
I stopped counting time, a long time ago,
I see now, something that I thought I would never know.
I have the right to point and blame,
because I see now, you are the same.
Same old dead beat, same old jerk.
Who can never seem to make it work.
I’m not upset
But I do regret
Letting you in,
now I cant forget.
