If someone tells you “You’re ugly,”
Tell them they’re beautiful.
If someone tells you “You’re incapable,”
Tell them they’re capable.
If someone tells you “You’re hopeless,”
Tell them they’re hopeful.
If someone tells you “You’re mean,”
Tell them they’re kind.
If someone tells you “You’re stupid,”
Tell them they’re smart.

Meditate on the positive words that are the opposite of the negative words they spit at you.

I took my heart,
locked it up,
and threw away the key...

I took the box,
said a prayer,
and tossed it in the sea...

I watched the box,
slowly sink,
to the bottom it would go...

In his eyes it's his passion,
In her's it's competition,
She keeps him away from music,
He knows that it's her mission,

She pulls him away,
Each and every day,
His stress builds to regret,
Regret of choosing her,

Why take him away from what he loves?
That's truly quite absurd,

Just Let Go

They said that the hardest part of being in love
is letting go,
When every reason can't be understood by each others heart,
But there is nothing that you can do,
Though every word that you say breaks your being,
when it seemed to be like a knife that struck your very core,
yet there is nothing that you can do still but to say goodbye.
Painful,but holding on to what you can't have is not easy.
Sometimes you need to sacrifice things to see the reality,
To feel the emptiness for you to see your best,
And To feel the loneliness, to see who's there,
Sometimes you need to give up something to see the life beyond,
