unfiltered thoughts

Be soft. Do not let the world make you hard. Do not let the pain make you hate. Do not let the bittersweetness steal your sweetness. Take pride that even though the rest in the world may disagree, you still believe it to be a beautiful place.

I’m not calling you a liar,
Just don’t lie to me.
And I love you so much,
I’m gonna let you
I’m not calling you a thief,
Just don’t,
And I love you so much,
I’m gonna let you,
Ohh,
I’m not calling you a ghost,
Just don’t.

I’m not sure what the future holds but I do know that I’m going to be positive and not wake up feeling desperate. As my dad said ‘Nic, it is what it is, it’s not what it should have been, not what it could have been, it is what it is’.
