Afraid.

Confession #16: Although I got over you more than a year ago, I still care what you think of me. I want you to finally give a damn.

“My point is, when I fall in love, I fall HARD. I fall for real, and I fall completely.”


"Your lips should be against mine." - CobbleStone



I'm not sure when I decided I would go against who I thought I was.

Maybe I'm just not the person I used to know.
I'm not the person I wanted to be.
Maybe... I never was.

And I hate what this all comes down to.
Me never being the right person.
Never making the right choices.

I went down a path of making decisions I wasn't ready for.
And I made up my mind not to do that in the future.
But I did.
I did it again.

I still... love this new me though.
I'm so happy being her.
She smiles much more easily.
She knows what she wants. She goes and gets it.
Sure, she cares about everyone else.
But she actually gives a damn about herself.
She will let you take her photo.

Although I hate that this person is not someone the old me would approve of.
And it's not someone that society will approve of.
It's someone I WANT to be.
I want to love myself.

...And I do.

Ebony, we're never really satisfied with who we are..we're women, we're never satisfied :P
We're always ever changing and we always try to change to be better.
You're an amazing girl, and I will love you through your worse and through your best :)
