Kirsten Corley

One day your phone is going to go off and you’ll wish it was my name across the screen.

She’s genuine because she doesn’t want to treat anyone the way people have treated her.

We break our own heart falling for the bad boy because we want to be the one that changes him.

She never uses her plus ones at weddings. She is always the person going stag to events. She almost likes not having to answer to anyone or watch out for anyone but herself. She’s fiercely independent to a point where it might be a flaw.

When I met you I had this dumbfound belief that love could overcome anything.

You’ve set a standard few can compare to. But I know the man standing before the two of us (when that day comes) will uphold the values you have set for me and the example you’ve led my entire life.

But the one thing no one is telling you is if he liked you and was interested in you then there wouldn’t be an ounce of confusion.

You made me feel safe in a life where I’ve questioned everyone and everything and learned to only trust myself.

Be with someone you’d be proud to introduce your friends and family to. Someone you stand beside and still get butterflies. Someone who makes you realize why it never worked out with anyone else.

This year taught me to be my own hero.

And I know I should have had enough self-respect to walk away sooner but love has a way of making you do stupid things. Love makes you believe these lies.

I want to be the space in bed you don’t mind sharing and when I’m not there it feels too big.
