Life hits kind of hard, especially when you grow close to people who don't love you for who you are and feel the need to change you. Be yourself. You are worth it and never forget it. This is s small poem I wrote about going through a breakup having to be true to myself.


Every moment felt bliss

How did we get to this

Thought that we'd last forever

But now forever's not us

I'm broken and torn

You're shaken and worn

Our melodies both strong

But built with different chords

I miss the good morning texts

And your smile each night

But I can't pretend it's worth it

Throughout every fight

I wanted love for me Not despite me

Yet you just want it period

I loved you for who you were

Blessings and downfalls a myriad

We may not want the same thing

And I don't think that's wrong

Cause we might change together

But still alone we must stay strong

I held you higher than my life

Funny how things change

I started to love myself

Saw your love wasn't the same

Fact is however

I'll never wish you pain

I just hope you find love in someone

You don't feel the need to change

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
