Before you walk into my life, you need to know something…
“Before you walk into my life, you need to know something about me. You need to know that I'm a very insecure person, I have a very low self esteem, I'm not perfect. I am everything but perfect. I find it hard to trust people now. I've made mistakes in the past, and I've learned to live with them. I've learned to accept people for who they really are, it's not hard. Sometimes, I can't be bothered anymore. Sometimes I don't even want to be alive, but, the thing is, I have a million reasons to be alive and I just haven't found them yet. I miss the people I shouldn't even think about anymore. I've liked, I've loved, I've been hurt. I have hurt people. I'm not perfect. But hey, this is me. And before you walk into my life, you need to know these things. Because, if you walk into my life, you can't walk out of my life when things are getting hard. Just like all the other people did.”
