The boy who cried wolf

"If I tell you I love you, can I keep you forever?"
                         -Casper
"I wanna grow old with you"
                         -The wedding singer
"Death can not stop true love, all it can do is delay it for a while"
                         -The Princess Bride
"Love is like the wind, you can't see it, but you can feel it"
                         -A walk to remember
"Love is a strong word."
                         -My Ex-boyfriend

"I love you." the posion so easily seeps through his mouth and rests on the crevices of his lips as they press against mine. And I easily mistake the burns that scorch my lips for the exciting, sparks of love in his kiss.

Heart break. It comes quickly, it hits hard. He lied. How could he love me when he can just click his phone off so easily, he sighs "I'm sorry I have to do this"  LIE!

"Wolf, help! There's a wolf" three times the little boy cried, and on the third and true time he was left helpless.

"I love you", "I'm in love with you", "Forever,unconditionally", no matter how many forms it comes in, a promise can only be broken so many times. A lie can only be believed for so long.

One strike. Two more to go before I'm out. Before I don't believe or fall for those words again. Three words. Eight letters. Three chances. The boy cried wolf, I believed him.

  2. Having to deal with a breakup is so difficult and complicated emotionally but you're only fifteen and just one, ordinary boy shouldn't stand before the world, regardless of what you may have thought beforehand. Either way, don’t spend too much time drowning in despair over him since it might seem a big deal now but in a few years time you won’t look back to the good times that you had but all the time you wasted whining about how unfair your ex was to you. Besides, I’m younger than you and already know well enough that in your teen years, what you may call “love” is often just your perception of what it will be like. Just let it go and learn to like and love yourself, clinging on to a guy who obviously doesn’t care for you the way you care for him is simply fighting a battle with yourself; you’ll always lose.
