Assusto-me por virar acidentalmente numa rua errada ou por dizer algo errado.<\/p>\n<p>Tenho medo de cometer erros, mas sobretudo tenho medo de viver.<\/p>\n<p>I was a challenger, an explorer, a wanderer, and it all got lost when I lost my hope in you. Actually, I didn\u2019t lose hope in you. I remember giving up on you. And I remember exactly when that happened.<\/p>\n<p>I was at an all-time low. I prayed my hardest and I believed you\u2019d get me out of there until I eventually stopped. I stopped praying and I stopped believing in you.<\/p>\n<p>E fiz tudo o que disseste \u00e0s pessoas para n\u00e3o fazerem. Queria que te sentisses como eu me sentia. Sozinha.
