the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

to be seen without performing. to be heard without screaming. to be missed without disappearing. to be enough without proving it. to be held without falling apart. to be understood without explaining. to be wanted without conditions. to be. to be.

I NEED TO ROMANTICIZE THIS LIFE!! THERE IS SO MANY BAD THINGS GOING ON IN WORLD AND I'M FULL OF USELESS ANGER, GRIEF AND SADNESS. I NEED TO USE THESE EMOTIONS TO DO SOMETHING, ANYTHING USEFUL AND LET REST IF IT GO. OR IT WILL SWALLOW ME WHOLE AND I'LL DROWN. I NEED TO ADD WHIMSY & STUDY HARD & BELIEVE IN MYSELF & LOVE MYSELF & RESPECT MYSELF BECAUSE IT IS A CRUEL WORLD AND I REFUSE TO TOOK PART IN THIS ACT. I NEED TO RETURN TO MY LITTLE SELF AND PROTECT HER AT ALL COSTS, SHE IS ALL I HAVE AND SHE IS ALL I WANT TO BE.
