Truth or dare?
With fire and pride in my heart,
I accepted a dare that could have torn me apart.
Tell him you like him....
Simple but hard to do,
With my heart on my sleeve I was ready to be destroyed by you.
Home or school?
A debate took place within my mind,
Each side bitter and tragically unkind.
Expect the worse.
Like a coward I sent an email.
But one way or another, I wouldn't fail.
The message was sent.
He said he respected me for not backing down from a dare.
He doesn't feel the same for me but still i can't help but stare.
He is (just) that guy and I am (just) that girl,
I told him i liked him during a dare....
So now I am going to go and (pretend) not to care

you didn't have to do it if you didn't want.. I didn't do the dare you dared me to do and I won't ever do anything that I don't wanna do... I got that taught to me by someone that I WAS really close too, but I found someone else who won't make me choose.. Her name is Lydia.. She will always be there for me..
