MY ONLY ONE

Penguins can't fly. I can't fly. Therefore I am a penguin.

This is for the girls who have the tendency to stay up all night listening to music that reminds them of their current situation. Who hide their fears, hurt, pain and tears under their smiles and laughs all on a daily basis. The girls who wear their hearts on their sleeve. The girls who pray things will work out just once and they'll be satisfied. The girls who scream and cry into their pillows because the rest of the world fails to listen. The girls who have it hard but don't let anyone know that. The girls who may never have it easy. The girls who have so many secrets but will never tell a soul. The girls who have regrets and mistakes as a daily moral. The girls who don't always win, who may never win. The girls who stay up all night thinking about that one boy wondering if he'll ever notice her. The girls who get what they get and don't throw a fit. The girls who take life as it comes, hoping it'll get easier somewhere down the road. The girls who love with all their hearts but always get broken. This is for the real girls. This is for you.

Remember me? I used to be that girl you talked to everyday. I was someone you could always count on. I was there when you needed me the most. You told me all your problems because you knew you could trust me. When I needed someone to lean on you were there to lend me your shoulder. Well what happened to those days? How did the distance pull us apart so easily? We act as though we don’t even know each other anymore. What hurts the most is that when we walk past one another, I pretend that I don’t know you and that you don’t know me.
