Becoming your own person is a crime punishable by death
No one cares about your mental health
Put your feelings on a shelf
Focus on achieving wealth
They want you to sit and accept their shit

What does it mean to love?
Is it a title?
Is it to act like a vital?
No, it is much more.
Much more than I can implore.
It is a feeling
a feeling of believing.
I go about my life busy like an ant on a hill,
but one day I stopped and decided to chill.
I found if I listen, it's not that difficult,
I could find some peace that wasn't invisible.
Happiness
The pursuit in life
Like our hopes and dreams
We must never lose sight
For if we do
We are no better
Than a simple rock
that has endured the weather
The prospect of independence,
The idea of alone time,
With no friends around,
I just do my own thing.
Everyday would be a new adventure.
Everyday would be something interesting.
What is it that brings me joy?
It's rather quite simple,
It's just being who I am.
I am a dancer,
A writer,
An artist,
A cyclist and a linguist.
My passion is in living
I could say im just ordinary.
Or even that im just.. me.
But that would just be a lie.
Because my personality is more than that.
It branches out like a tree.
My personality is not only me.
It’s not that I don’t remember
Or that I even forgot
It’s just that I need to move on now
With school
With work
With friends
With family
With my life
in this world there's so much do this be that
but I'm me, who is that?
I dont want to be the girl in the magazine
I would rather eat out at burger king
and no I wont be your beauty queen
What’s the point of exhaling,
When no one wants you to inhale
We are all a bunch of hypocrites, you know?
We say we love, but
We stab each other in the back
We say we heal, but
Cautiously bestowing her ethereal presence,
the profundity of her garden casting me into the unknown,
Calliope appeared in front of me with the face of an angel
and the voice of a commanding god.
