my mr. big... my mr. wrong...

there are only a handful of situations when you are truly able to put your foot down... otherwise we power talk ourselves into saying all of the right things, only to back down when the chance arrives... sometimes it's extremely hard to know what you want... even harder to explain it in words...

i thought about letting problems fade away... ignoring them until maybe one day it just wouldn't matter... but when it comes to the heart, everything matters -- whether we want it to or not... i needed to get angry; i needed to cry... i needed you to know my pain, even if you didn't care...

i'll never be sure why i let you get away with all you did for all these years... i'll never be sure why we tried over and over again at the same doomed failure... maybe we were kidding ourselves at winning the presented challenge... well, i think i was at least... the only thing i never truly focused on though, was that the awarded prize, you, wasn't really all it was cracked up to be... so i've quit the race... i've quit you, in hopes that i'll no longer make the same mistakes i'm warned about by countless people that truly care about me... i let it all out and although i feel a somber sense of loss, i know the truth is i've gained a whole lot more...
