Elise needs to remember when things get tough-- "the heart is a muscle the size of your fist. keep loving. keep fighting." ...even if it feels like you're the only one in the world who is....
If you're lucky enough to know what you want and it's worth fighting for, do whatever it takes to get it... even if you are "just dreaming out loud"....
i didnt think it would be this hard. i didnt think that id have to do this all alone, but its my turn to be strong. he was there for me when my whole world was crashing down (so i thought) and now its my turn. i didn't believe in me and he helped me change that.... maybe hes lost faith in love and in us, but its my turn to be here and be strong and suck it up and wait and hope and pray for things to get better. until then, i might hurt and cry and feel like giving up... but if i can get back here... bring myself back to the fact that this IS a choice and it is the choice i've made... it makes it feel better, more manageable.... not completely and utterly and totally hopeless ... even if that feeling only lasts for a few seconds....
Its hard being in love by yourself.
Keep writing.
