Believe deep down in your heart that you are destined to do great things because you don't succeed by "It is what it is", you succeed by "It is what you make it".

She calls you,

Sends you text #57...

...again

And I know what you're thinking

 

You're thinking I'll be jealous

Or mad that you're talking to her,

Dreaming up wors case scenarios

Where you leave me

For the shadow of an ex

That I've heard horror stories of

Because clearly I'm an angel

And she's the Wicked Witch.

But seriously?

 

I could care less

Who she is

What she said

Why she called

How she feels

 

If you want to talk

Then go right ahead.

Freedom of speech and all.

I don't care what she wants

Because I know

She won't get you back.

I am yours and you are mine

And that's all that matters
