by then.. too late.

Sometimes, convincing yourself that change is possible can save you from a lot in this world. Sometimes, trying to prove that there's something different about him allows us to slowly accept the fact that he's not the one. Sometimes, searching for love is all that we really can do to feel alive. But when that search comes to a close and we lay our heads down night after night, shouldn't we begin to realize something? Sometimes it's easier to put the peices back together than leaving them on the floor for someone else to stoop down and clean up. This isn't a quote, or a movie, or a song. This is real life, and it's not laced with pretty little words that you can write down and tell yourself. It's real life,and there's nothing pretty about it. You'll get used to it when it smacks you in the face.
