"Tough times don't last, but tough people do." -Robert H. Schuller.

I already posted this in my last set, but its important enough to have its own set.
 
PLEASE READ ON;;
 
This set is dedicated to all those girls out there, who don't think they are good enough. Who don't know how much they are loved. Who cut their skin, as if its paper. Who never seem to know when to be happy again.
Because I know how it feels. I know how helpless it is to be in love, I know how much it hurts, for I cried myself to sleep nearly ever night, many nights ago.
It may never seem like it will get better. But it does. Sometimes, all it takes is for you to make that choice. That choice to smile, and be happy again. With a little help from friends, and most importantly, yourself, you can do it.
I know you can. If you ever feel like nobody believes in you, or that nobody cares anyway, just know that I do. I don't want people to go through what I went through. I want you to be happy.
So if you're reading this, know, that I love you. With all my heart.

I encourage you to make a set for those who need that encouragement, tagging #youcandoit .

If you don't, that's fine. But just know, you could save a life. And that's something to be proud of.

 
Please tag your friends.
Forever and always,

~Abbey

Only Love by Nina Nesbitt.

How can love over take me
And steer me onto a path
I don’t want to take?
How can love over take me
And mess with my head again?
How is it that I can love you
But you can’t love me?
How is it
That I only want
What I can’t have?
All these words we never say
All these thoughts we never share
It’s a never ending road
To defeat.

Skinny Love by Birdy.
 
~°*~°✩°~*°~
♡
Beat me for days
bruises trailing up and down my heart
scars along my self esteem
you say this is just a faze.
 
Slowly
ever so slowly
with quivering limbs
I stand to my feet
staring at them
cruel in their hard eyes
ready to spit upon my soul
and kill my heart
 
But I am stronger than this
bigger than what they may say
I will not give in
for I am stronger than this.

Felt inspired to make a full set today... courtesy of @ladyoftheflowers , please check out her sets, they are gorgeous! (certainly much better than my attempt right here.) So this set is dedicated to you dear, and of course, my lovely sister it seems, @indie-luver. Nothing I can say will sum up how much you mean to me, so all I can say, is I love you, and hope you and I never get out of touch. For I would miss you too much.

Promise to keep me safe.

This set, is dedicated to the four most beautiful, kind, caring, talented, and thoughtful girls that I know on polyvore.
 
"Friends are like stars. You don't have to see them, to know they are always there.";
 
@indie-luver I know have told you this probably about a million times, but I love you. Everything you have ever said to me, has always been kind, and helped me so much. Oh dear... you have me crying right now... you, just, care so much. And that means the world to me. Nothing I can ever say, will express how much you have helped me, saved me even. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart.
 
@sharmarie I. Love. You. You, don't even know how talented, and kind you are. You just... care so much, and that means a lot to me. Much thanks, for always knowing what to say to me.
 
@emc1397 you, darling, are amazing. I love you so much. The fact that you care about me, is an indescribable feeling to me. Not that I don't have people who care about me... sometimes, okay, a lot of times, I feel alone. I feel so out of place, and worthless. But you, you make that better. You show me (as well as the other lovely ladies this is dedicated to) that people do care. Thank you. So much.
 
@tcmaree First off, out of all these ladies, I knew you first. We haven't talked in some time, but I know that you will always be here for me. I love you so much, you don't even know. Thank you for being someone to talk to, and for being one of many reasons to smile.
 

Oh my gosh... I feel like I haven't said enough to each of you... like, how much I appreciate you, I will never be able to put that into words. I just... okay, I'm at a loss for words. So, basically, I love you all. So so so so much. More than I should ;)

So... after I pour my heart out... lol. I also want to thank everyone else on polyvore who has showed me some form of love. I appreciate each and every one of you. I love you all♥

Young Volcanoes by Fall Out Boy.

[a sonnet];
 
Pluck the petals
one by one
count the lies
dry out your eyes
 
cast away the stem
into the sea
forget about them
you're free
 
force a smile
walk in the rain
hold your head up high
drop all the pain
breathe in the air
you're free.

Awake and Alive by Skillet.
 
Been obsessing over this song the past couple of days... yep...
 
~°*~°✩°~*°~
♡
You are the wool socks
on a cold winters day
 
You are the snowflakes
on my warm wet tongue
melting away
 
You are the tea
in the morning
when I can't think straight
and the afternoons
where I might as well accept my fate
 
You are you
and I am me
and I guess that is all
we are meant to be.
♡

She Will Be Loved by Maroon 5.
 
I dunno why... but this song has been stuck in my head for the past couple of hours... I think it might be because I saw some text thing that was all like "look for the girl with the broken smile", then of course I started singing it.
 
Figures.

Oh the moon
and how it shines bright
little sliver of light
can you give me a reason
to jump
without being afraid to fall again?
♡
~°*~°✩°~*°~
 
This set is dedicated to all of you. I don't have any specific special younglings that I can remember c; plus, you all are so sweet, special, and utterly amazing in your own ways. I commend you for that. You all inspire me SO much, you have no idea.
So thanks. Thank you for always being here for me, for always knowing what to say, and always knowing when I needed someone to be my rock. I need a lot of you to survive. Without you, I would be nothing. So thanks. Please remember how beautiful, and perfect you all are to me. Don't ever let anyone convince you otherwise.
 
Forever,
~Abbey

Lock the door
Throw out the key
Oh why must you do this to me?
I thought you promised
That you would end this war
But alas
All we have
Are shards of glass
And broken memories.
