Matt White just lifted my spirits today.

You laughed and did not take it seriously when I told you the words that come from you hurt me. Every person that you meet has a past, present, and future. My past involves mistakes that only I made. I am not perfect to your eyes. I hurt you once, and you're just waiting for me to hurt you again. I make my own mistakes because I am ignorant. i do my own things because i feel like it is necessary to do so. my actions defines me for who i am. i get it, you’re using my past to define my future. i regret my actions. regret is a state of punishment where you dwell amongst the actions you did. you were given an option, a choice. every choice is perfect, but what you do with it makes it imperfect. if you strongly use my past to define my future actions, then do so. are you attacking me? provoking me? encouraging me? reminding me? if you strongly dislike me, i get it. those words you say so strongly can hurt a person, but it’s the truth. thank you for bluntly saying your statements. i am my own person. i’m not asking for you to stay in or stay out my life. if doors were meant to be open, then they were meant to be closed as well.

To me, you seem to only have an enjoyable time outside. Outside the walls of us. You tell me that I'm important and you came back because you wanted to fix us, me. How can I be with you if you no longer have the same fire you had before? How can i stay with you if you consistently hurt me without knowing? How can I stay if you no longer believe what's in front of us now?
