Shattered Heart

You said I was your diamond

Shattered Heart
Windows By Melissa

A year ago you took a blurry photo of me from the passenger seat of my car

You stated "this is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen"

That was one of the first things you said to me that made me fall in love with you

Madly and deeply in love.

We were in your bed and you said

"Tell me something that nobody knows"

So I did.

I shared with you my past

I revealed to you my worst fears

I was as open and vulnerable as any human could be.

You took my hands in yours,

You said you were glad those other boys ruined their chances with me

Because that means we get to be together

Those boys were looking for treasure but didn't look hard enough

You said I was your treasure

I was your diamond.

When I loved you,

You set a fire inside of my heart that kept me warm.

It burned brightly

And you added kindle with every compliment you paid to me.

When you left

You stomped the fire out.

Leaving me in the dark

In the cold

In the smoke.

You told me that your favorite color was green

Like my eyes.

And before I looked into yours,

My favorite color was blue.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
