I'm No Longer Your Tinkerbell

To the Peter Pan in my past, your absence showed me I can be anything I dream of.

I'm No Longer Your Tinkerbell

We can call this a love story, but really it was a life lesson. It taught me what I deserve. It taught me that nothing was wrong with my expectations.

I spent too much of my time being your Tinkerbell. I would do anything for you, including sacrificing myself to be there for you. I was at your every call. I would fill with angry and jealously watching you give other girls the attention that I deserve. (Which now I know it was because I wasn’t of any significance to you.)

I ask myself “why?”. Why did I sit back and feel caged? The answer was I was willing to do anything to be able to fly with you. I wanted the adventure and the thrill of experiencing life with you. When in reality I can fly on my own. For I have my own set of wings, that I did not believe in myself enough to experience.

For you were Peter Pan and I expected too much from someone who didn’t think of anyone but themselves. You were on a mission to do life with you in mind. You weren’t willing to think of others or enjoy life with someone else. For you were stuck in Neverland and unwilling to grow up. You couldn’t and wouldn’t do life without the rest of your “lost boys”.

If it wasn’t chasing an adventure it wasn’t in your plan. For I, wanted something stable and that wasn’t in your plan. You lived life day by day, without any plan of the future. I went along with it, and waiting for the minute that you decided we could converse.

I’ve learned that there is so much to life when you realize your self worth. You can do anything you want if you believe in yourself. I believed in others the way I should of believed in myself. In the end, I learned that I was capable of anything as long as I escaped from Neverland.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
