The music we listen to,
the way we dress,
the books we read,
the way we talk,
is what makes teenagers, teenagers.
It's also what makes us defects,
but I refuse to conform to society.
I am who I am.
Society cheats us.
It empowers the ideas of freedom
and individualism.
Yet it conforms it.
What a stupid world we live in.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Nothing is free.
Everything has to be paid for.
For every profit in one thing,
payment in some other thing.
For every life, a death.
Even your music,
of which we heard so much,
that had to be paid for.
Your wife was the payment for your music.
Hell is now satisfied.

Cutting isn't cute.
Cutting isn't beautiful.
Cutting is a tragedy.
Cutting makes us hurt.
Stop making these things mainstreams.
Stop making these things trends.
There's nothing romantic about something that makes us hurt
or that stains our blood on shirts.

I know your streets, sweet city.
I know the angels and demons that flock,
and roost in your boughs like a bird.
I know you river, as if you flowed through my heart.
I am your warrior daughter.
There are letters made of your body,
as a fountain
is made of water.
There are languages of which
you are the blueprint,
and as we speak
the city rises...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
People who know and love the same books as you
have the road map
to our soul.

Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Atelophobia:
the fear of being not good enough
or imperfection.

The best people are wallflowers...
