Do You?

Do you take life for granted? Do you love somebody? Do you still believe in love and fairytales? Do you care too much? Would you risk your life for anyone? Have you ever been hurt by someone you love? Have you ever been afraid to speak up for what you believe in? Have you ever said "I love you" to anyone? Do you worry about your struggling friends? Do you look back to the past and regret anything?

I take everything for granted and when I stop and think about it, it breaks my heart. I keep a handful of people close to me, I believe in myself and in independence. Love is the most powerful weapon in the world. I try to be cold and build a wall between myself and people who I know will screw me over, but I if have enough faith in them, I can't help trying to reach out to them and turn them around. Giving up everything for someone depends on whether they would give up everything for me. Are they worth the trouble? I have been hurt by someone I love. If I have something to say, I will give you a piece of my mind and not think twice about it. I can't remember the last time I said "I love you" out loud. I have no worry for my friends who I know are going to be alright. I look back on the past and regret nothing. I'm free :)
