She sticks out immediately in her expensive looking navy dress, shiny bag and shoes that probably cost more than I make in a month. My breath leaves me when I see that her arm is draped around a younger version of herself. That hair, it's pulled back way too tight now, but I'd run my hands through it a thousand times before. That face, now in layer of makeup that makes her look older than I remember, I'd held it in my calloused hands and kissed those lips goodbye over a year ago. She said she'd never see me again and I learned to accept that. She destroyed me, and I'd moved on.No. Not her. She's not from here anymore. I don't know who that person is anymore.","author":"Jolene Perry","tags":["hurt","hurt-feelings","hurting","love-hurts"],"id":25255,"author_id":"Jolene+Perry"},{"text":"When reality hurts, make sure to soar above the dream-stained sky!","author":"Munia Khan","tags":["above","dream","dreams","dreams-inspirational","dreams","hurt","hurt-feelings","hurts","inspirational","inspirational","make","reality","reality-of-life","sky","soar","soar","soaring","soaring","stain","stained","sure","when"],"id":33220,"author_id":"Munia+Khan"},{"text":"There comes a moment in life when one must acknowledge that you just can't keep looking back into your past for reasons to keep someone in your present and future.
