The Messy Attic

Save the music

2010-08-22T20:06:00.001-07:00

When songs are written they often stem from an emotion or an event and some make no sense at all. Then you have specifics;the cliche for a girl or a boy or about a girl or a boy. Some songs praise,and others are left to be interprited by the listener alone.

Everyone listens to music in different ways. Some focus on the beat,some on the melody,some on the lyrics.

I am a lyric person,if the lyrics attract me then I will usually end up liking all of the other elements that make the song what it is. I also tend to disreguard the specifics of songs. I feel that a song is for the listener to relate to,wether is be meant for one person or wether it addresses the world.

I feel at some point one should forget about all the bullshit and their personal opinions about the artist of a song. Because there are a fair number of good songs that get pissed on because people don't like what they are fed about the artist...why punish a good song because you don't like the person who sings it?

When it comes down to it songs are written and sang to be heard by the masses,they are meant to be heard...it is pretty much their job to get listened to. And I think that no matter the specifics of a song,that they are made to be universal,for people of every age,gender,race to listen to.

Holes in the floor aren't always a bad thing.

2010-08-18T01:58:00.000-07:00

Death is a weird thing. Nobody ever really knows when it is their time. And when people die,people often wonder if they are still there in spirit,even though their physical bodies have passed.

I was going through the lyrics of the song Holes in the Floor of Heaven and it got me to thinking about how the lyrics in that song can sometimes feel real. Well at least on a personal level. I know for me it seems really real when I think about it.

My grandma die of lung cancer when I was 14,and I was devestated. I spent a lot of time with her,and she was like my second mom. She had so much faith in me. I remember we had conversations about my high school graduation and how we would both be happy for that day. I knew she really wanted to be there on that day,it was important to her as it was to me. But as things were,she would not be able to make it.

It rained on the day of my graduation. And it rains on days when I am really sad and heartbroken and I pray for a way to know that someone cares.

Most would think of the rain as a curse when it happens on important days like that,but for me it is a blessing and it gives me some hope that my grandma still watches over me to this day.I am forever glad that she gets the chance to do so.

The song goes:

because there's holes in the floor of Heaven

and her tears are falling down

that's how you know she's watching

wishing she could be here now

sometimes when i'm lonely

i remember she can see

yes,there's holes in the floor of heaven

and she's watching over you and me

All the while I have to remember to not dwell in the what use to be's. Because life happens while you dwell on the past and think about what might happen. I'm not saying you should stop making plans,or forget about back when,I just think it is important not to linger. The dead are dead physically,but that does not mean the spirit is dead to. That is indeed still alive and well,and it helps keep it alive if you keep living because if the situation be the death of a loved one like my grandmother,they would love nothing more than to see you do that.

To keep living is a precious gift.

Let the rain fall.

Wisdom,if you could call it that.

2010-08-12T23:15:00.000-07:00

When you are caught head banging while eating your cereal in the morning:Keep head banging.

If you know the song:Sing it,because you know you will feel so much better about life if you do.

Be honest all the time:People might hate you for it in the beginning,but they will get over it.

Ask questions:It does not mean you are dumb,it just means you are willing to learn.

Road rage is okay:Until somebody gets out of their car in traffic to deal with it.

People think ill of you because of the stereotypes attached to where you are from:Forget about it,they are probably stupid anyway.

Not all breakups are the end of a relationship.

The seemingly smallest and easiest things to accomplish in life are often the hardest to,that is probably why the small things seem like they mean more when you do accomplish them.

To be continued...

I just want to remember this dream.

2010-08-12T00:01:00.001-07:00

In all seriousness!
I had a pretty messed up, yet epic dream that involved zombies.

I was at a family function, and I left with someone to get some ice from the store in town. I get back with the ice, and zombies start coming out of the forest, and attacking the party. Everyone pulls out guns and such...except for me. I had a friggen hammer! And no one had an extra gun or anything so I was going around killing zombies with my hammer.

About A Girl

2010-08-11T18:37:00.000-07:00

She is the kind of girl who is insecure about some things,but usually never apologizes for who she is. She goes days with out brushing her hair,and still manages to pull it off. She lives inside her head a lot,and doesn't say to much, but when she does it means something. She is afraid of being alone in the physical and emotional sense. She isn't afraid to admit it,and will admit just about anything if you just ask her. She is picky about the guys she chooses to date,and has created a system for weeding out the ones that are not worth her time. She likes to reuse paper sacks as canvas,because she is to broke to buy actual canvas;when she runs out of paint,she uses markers,when her markers run out of ink,she uses crayons and pencils,when they widdle down or break,she uses whatever she can find,and will make a mess of it. She has a collection of old cameras,and likes to go to antique stores and flea markets. She prefers giant headphones over earbuds. She has an insane love for The Beatles. She thinks she cares way to much,and feels that she annoys people,when really they are just shocked that she was paying attention. She wishes she could wear dresses more often,but her slightly large breasts make it hard to find ones that both fit,are flattering,and fit her style. She also feels that you can never go wrong with a simple pair of black flats. She isn't really that in to jewelry,but when she is she likes simple pieces,and hopes someday someone that knows her (well) will give her a simple little necklace like the one she wears all the time now (which she bought herself). She loves dogs,but has a pet cat,and secretly wants a parrot. She loves to travel,but not alone. She make obscure references (often)that nobody ever gets. She has a girl crush on Hayley Williams from Paramore. She wore her high top converse with her big princess dress to her Senior prom. She loves taking hikes. She has a peircing and two tattoos,which makes her the rebel/black sheep of her family. She is not a morning person. She likes holding hands and kissing. She has a love for "bland" cereals. She does not believe that love is dead. She spends way to much time on the internet. She loves just being with people,for the most part. She will tell you she don't know who she is. She is just a girl.

She wrote this.

Some of those secrets

2010-08-10T22:52:00.000-07:00

I have so many dreams for my life,but reaching them will mean nothing to me if I'm alone when I get there.

I'm afraid that no one will ever want to understand me.

I will not hesitate to "make myself at home" if you tell me to.

He has been the only guy to ever break my heart and make me fall even more for him at the same exact time.

There have been times when I would have not hesitated to trade being able to be myself for being popular.

I think I'm one of the most awesome people ever.

I often fantasize about how I will meet,fall in love,and live happily ever after with my celebrity crushes.

I like it when people speak directly to me by using my name.

I think "music snobs" are some of the worst kind of snobs in this world.

I feel like a defect because I've never had a relationship last much longer than a month.

If I had the money all of the shirts in my closet would be nothing but youtuber shirts.

I feel dumb when people don't get my obscure references.

I believe that everyone thinks I'm boring and annoying at the same time.

I believe that love is the most simple concept out there.

Every time I mow the yard I have to fight the urge to mow the shape of a giant penis in to the grass.

When I'm alone and I sing out loud,I always stop and correct myself until I think I'm doing it right.

I observe and make up theories about things around me,hoping that someday they will actually be valid in real life.

I have inside jokes with myself.

Every time I hear the word penis,it makes me think of a game my friends in high school would play at lunch.

I want to act with other people the way I act when I am by myself because it would make me happier not because it would make me more interesting to others.

My idea of a work out is listening to Paramore,No Doubt,Halestorm, and Heart,while jumping around and lip synching into my old karaoke mic/rocking it out like it is my job.

(To be added on to....)

Maybe it's not my weekend but it's gonna be my year!

2010-07-24T13:24:00.000-07:00

I Should've Known Better

2010-07-23T19:07:00.000-07:00

I'm sure everyone feels lonely sometimes. I know I do,probably more often than I should. But there is usually that moment when amongst the empty feeling in your head is overcome by the fullness of you heart. Because the heart usually knows what the brain wants to deny,and that is you are never really alone. More often than not,you are probably on someone's mind.

In this life we gain friends,and lose them. Some we are glad that we once knew,others we wish we had never met,and then there are the ones you want to keep forever. Growing up never showed much for me personally on the friend front. It seemed like every year the "best friend" from the previous year had all but forgotten we had a bond at all,and I was sent packing my crayon box to find another friend. And at some point I just isolated myself and tried to be friends with everyone. When the "Cheer War" went down my 6th grade year I was the one that hung out with the guys just wondering why all of this was happening;because it was one of the dumbest things...even at that age I knew it.

And now it seems as if things are happening in the same way,just in a larger frame of time. I feel like every time I move,I lose the friends that I once had,and have to make new ones. The only thing now is I don't have a pot of people to kind of pick from because I am no longer in school,and don't have a job. And I have never been the best at meeting people. So I am now stuck in what seems to be one of the lonliest times of my life so far.

I spend my days at home. Doing my online classes,doing chores,and looking for jobs. All while the rest of the world seems to be interacting with one another. I just feel left out all of the time. I feel like those people I were once to close to don't even care if I exist anymore or not. And I'm close to giving up trying to get their attention. I even sometimes feel like my mom has left me behind.

When it gets down to it. I can't help but feel alone and isolated. I mean I get jealous that my sister,brother,boyfriend,and even my parents all have their friends,and it seems like I don't.

Even though I should know better.

At this point I don't.

This Magic Moment

2010-07-15T21:01:00.000-07:00

She could see the lights of the freeway flashing by like the stars of and unknown galaxy. A few hours closer to where she was going. A few hours farther from where she had been. Lightyears separated her mind from either,which is where she seemed to stay. You never really knew what was in her brain,what she was thinking.

She would never tell you,and asking what she was thinking was a hit and miss game itself. Being dealt either a straight answer or something vague,almost as if she didn't even know what she was thinking. But she did. Yearning for so many things,dreaming as if it was going out of style,thinking of the living moment. What was happening at the very second.

She was thinking of that now empty highway,the stars in the sky,the song on the radio,the guy in the backseat,and how she wished this would never end.

As she combines the components in her mind she knows that in this moment,it never will.

Filled with broken promises

2010-07-10T10:54:00.000-07:00

I feel forgotten because I had to leave

I feel that is a lousy punishment for you to give me

The time is closing in with so much to be said

The words of your broken promise already floating in my head

I need a friend not a pal

Never lived to satisfy me

I just can't but have that feeling deep inside

That you've already expired me

Not a carton of milk that you can just throw out

Just the way you've been treating me makes me want to shout

Punch

Scream

Yell

Makes me want to believe that promises are never kept well

Can We Pretend That Airplanes In The Night Sky Are Like Shooting Stars?

2010-06-18T23:07:00.001-07:00

I have lived a short life. All to many good and bad things happening in the mix of things. I am only 18 for now almost garunteed to get older. Once upon a time I wanted to "grow up" and be a doctor; I changed my mind many times like any growing child.

But I began to fear the world and all that was in it. It was suppose to be an age of innocence. Stolen by the fear of weather or not I was going to be yelled at when I got home from school every day. I knew this was wrong...I was not suppose to fear like this. But long ago I took the role of survivor instead of playing the victim. I finally came to terms with the fact all that I endured was "abuse." And I over came that. No matter how many times I was told I was nothing,no matter how often I was told I was worthless,and no matter how often I was screamed at and threatened for doing innocent things,I knew he was wrong.

And whenever I heard the yells,or breaking of furniture,I would sneak my way outside no matter what time of day or night. And I would Look up and wish on everything that lit up.

Even airplanes.

I finally got my wish and I know after so long.

Everything is going to be okay.

I'm going to be okay. And I know that there are people who care about me no matter what. I have learned to love myself in general. And I have opened up. I finally find it in my heart to trust someone. That fear is being replaced by innocence once again.

I am growing happier by the day.

Not saying I don't get down,I am only human. Stuff happens,but all is never lost.

And when I "grow up" I know that it will not be about what I am but how I am.

I've got a lot of growing up to do still and I know what I want to be "when I grow up" but that is irrelevant,because I know how I want to end up is happy.

A strange and simple concept.

And to think this huge revelation all started with me pretending that airplanes in the night sky were shooting stars.

Don't Try To Lie,I Know The Truth:No Longer A Secret

2010-06-03T20:08:00.001-07:00

At some point I stopped caring

About wether or not they know my secrets

Because no matter how deep

No matter how painful

No matter how stupid

No one cares

HE Loves me

2010-05-21T21:34:00.000-07:00

Because I'm not ashamed

Who I am

Is who I will be

Not because it's my religion

Because it's my RELATIONSHIP

With Him

I know

He sees me

He knows me

He forgives me

He understands

We talk for hours on end

Even if every conversation is heard only within my head

What I am lacking

He is not

For I am broken

On my knees

I pray

I ask

To know His love

Never really letting me fall

He will always answer the call

I BELIEVE

Once and for all

HE LOVES ME

ALL

Bleeding Passion

2010-04-25T22:40:00.000-07:00

I bleed passion

I bleed it internal

Beauty from within

Urges me to win

Not the race

Nor the game

This passion

Wants me to win for the same

Equality

A more open mind

Not let hate bind these hands of mine

Just in time

Making one

A difference

Starting with a heart

Ending with a start

Don't let the world us tear apart

From the outside in

Bleed it

From the inside out

Stand for something

Show them where effort ends

Where passion begins

Boxed Life

2010-04-16T22:05:00.000-07:00

It has been a long while since I've got to sleep in my own bed. I've been sleeping in borrowed beds,couches,and mattresses on the floor. I've been kicked out of one living situation in to a not living situation. Technically I am a homeless person,I have no permenatnt place of residence. And, I can't find a job; it is like I have a huge stamp on my forehead that says "do not hire." At this point in my life I should be a somewhat thriving,stressed,ready for summer college kid,but I'm not...and I won't be for a long time. The not being able to find a job means I am usually sans money,which means I barely ever have enough spare change to put gas in my car let alone take my ACT which I need to apply for any and all of the schools I would LOVE to attend. My family helps me as much as they can,as well as my mom since she is in a similar place.

Last year I was living in a place that felt more like home than any other place that I have ever lived in my life. People were more open an accepting of everything.

Now I am back "living" in my "hometown" where everyone judges every move you make and critizies for every choice you do and don't make. I was raised there but I never fit in,and I never want to.

Last year when someone would ask me where I live I would proudly tell them.

Now I hate when people ask me that because it hurts to much to tell them I don't live anywhere;I usually make a joke out of it,but it really hurts to tell people that.

I was plucked away from my real friends,and my real home.

Then I was put back in a place where I only thought I had real friends,and where my real home has been reduced to a now mildewed pile of boxes under a covered concrete slab that is exposed to the elements and anyone who passes by 24/7.

I know the circumstances kill my mom,who just wants me to be me,and be happy,she tries really hard. I know it makes her sad that she can't provide for me the way she wants to. I want her to know that it is okay,and she give me more than she knows. She accepts me,supports me and my crazy self,and just loves me for who I am,and even thinks my crazy tattoo obsession is cool.

I couldn't be more thankful than I am for having the mom that I do.

And my dad,wow,he has shocked me in the recent extra time I've got to spend with him. Let's just say that I know where I get my passion for traveling from.

Thanks dad for showing me something new about yourself that reminds me where I come from.

On an almost closing note,I miss all of my friends so much that it kills me. I don't think anyone understands. I want to tell them on a daily basis,but I'm afraid that they don't miss me half as much as I miss them. And part of me is waiting for them to be the people who falter and say it first,but they never do. I actually rarely hear from them,I know they have lives,but I miss my friends!

I truly am glad to have them in my life,they aren't bad friends...I'm just forgetful...kind of like that $20 you leave in you pants and find when you are cleaning your room a few months later,you forgot you had it but are supper excited to have found it.

All in all my situation makes me sad when I think about it.

Homeless,job less,bruised spirit.

But I keep moving on,growing each day.

I cry often,but I smile more.

Because my boxes are only half full.

Can You Hear It?

2010-03-22T22:13:00.000-07:00

Andy rummaged through the cabinet under the bathroom sink,desperately looking for and extra roll of toilet paper,only to be met with towels,discarded makeup bags,an old curling iron,and two boxes of tampons. As last she took a desperate attempt and raided the cabinet in her younger brother's bathroom.

"Ah ha!" She whispered triumphantly snatching two extra rolls out from behind the towels,and taking them back to her bathroom.

She slammed the door,to the bathroom and some canisters of lotion and hair products fell over.

She knew that it was bound to happen,they were already leaning, bareley being supported by the chord of her straightener.

"Yep"

She sighed as she straightened up the fallen pile. She took to the porcelian throne to do business.

The window in the other room was open,and she could hear a train going buy,cars stopping at the stop sign on the corner,then accelerating off to wherever. The faucet in the bathtub was leaking with a tiny drip every now an then,just audible enough for her to hear. For some reason every single noise was ringing very loudly to her.

With a loud woosh the toilet flushed. Andy then went into her bedroom,and sat. She listened,it seemed almost surreal,hearing it,like everyone was living life together but they never crossed paths,never influenced one another in anyway,without saying a word. She couldn't help but wonder.

How unaware are we all really?

When did all of the noises,natural,and man made alike,become background noise?

"Maybe its just me." She spoke to herself again.

Sitting back down at her desk,and putting on her giant headphones,she played some music,blocking out those sounds,in hopes to that when she did hear them...she would really hear them.

I don't ever try to make sense,but when I do it truly means something. I ramble on and on,just hoping that someone will take notice,will listen,will notice. I can be happy,sad,angry,confused...most of the time I am. It is all so simple. I can feel it,I have it figured out for just a second. My world is always crashing in,one wall gets fixed,and then the roof starts caving in. Those walls don't hold me...thats why there are windows. My eyes,blue like water,like that of the ocean,so easy to read,so predictable, can damage a soul within seconds,without warning. I've started to think,more than they ever wanted me to. Give me passion,in the making. I bleed it. Splatters on my shoes.I think you are ridiculous,at times we all are. All in different ways,we gained portals with time.Communication is dead.The system,constantly screwing with our heads.

The Messy Attic

2010-03-08T13:45:00.000-08:00

Heavy steps

Up stairs

The creaky door

No one has entered in years

Search for electricity

No trigger in sight

Through a fog of cobwebs

See the sunlight

It filters out

That which the darkness hides

So personal

So divine

The contents of the messy attic

Are

To be found

In this mind

Mine

Miss

2010-03-08T11:53:00.000-08:00

Hidden behind eyes

Deep

Dark

Searching for some form of light

Natural

Longing

Given up on

No one feels sorry for

You don't deserve this

No one does

Especially you

You think the same of me

I can see it

You believe it

The moments small

Fleeting

Holding on tight

This time is all we have

Far from a hero,you

Far from a heroine,me

Living

To decieve

Wanting to be

Nothing more than free

Higher Love

2010-03-04T18:17:00.000-08:00

Right now

I'm not crying because i'm sad

Angry

Nothing negative

I cry because you gave me the strength

To live again

Means so many things

It means the most to me

So much discouragement

The world deals it out on a daily basis

So much kindness

You dealt it on a secondly basis

Lifted me up

Until the end

I'm not crying because I miss you

I am

Because you still believe in me

After the end

My love I send

And yours I still keep

Because that is the kind

Love

Runs so much higher than six feet deep

You and I See Me

2010-02-26T21:29:00.000-08:00

You see me as you want to see me

Only simple words

Only simple definitions

Nothing too complicated

Too good or too bad

It doesn't make me sad

Not in the least bit

Nope

Because

I wake up everyday and proceed to say

"You see me as you want to see me

I see me as I want to,too."

As far as you're concerned

The following words may or may not be true

But you don't have to worry

The closing statement is in no way directed at you

I'm not pretty or ugly

Nor to grounded to fly

I'm not stupid

Not afraid to die

Yep

Because this,ahem

Is my final statement

I am beautifully made

Willing to dream

I get confused sometimes

Do love life while I'm 'live

And that...

Is for me to decide

The Fan and The Fame

2010-02-20T20:11:00.000-08:00

I am unimpressed by "fame" in person

Because a person is all it is

Persona sometimes created by the media

Worshiped by the money makers of the industry

Made of skin

Made of cells

Made from dirt

Made of all the same things as I

You are unimpressed by me

You call me a "fan"

Seemingly just a random unimportant human being

You just don't seem to care where I'm coming from

We are the cycle of things

Both the same

The fan and the fame

Sings the songs

Writes the words

Be's the characters

You inspire me

I inspire you

We give life the credit

They give you the money

They put you on the stage

And you thank me

We never get to meet at eye level no matter how close we step

I don't see you as they do

I see you as me

The fan and the fame

One in the same

the "bad" idea

2010-02-10T08:45:00.000-08:00

Unimpressed by your fame
Those guys in bands really are just lame
Just that guy who sat by you in class
Great friend
Big Flirt
Bad idea
Big dreams
Nothing too material
Open up his mind and I want to step in
Guys in bands
Silly
Begin to priortize
Did fame comsume that smile?
Damn,I'm out of time
But you're out of your mind
The girlies swoon for you
You're tipping the bottle
Just belowful throttle
Crazy life
Great friend
Big flirt
Bad idea
That guy in the band
I knew you before you were just that

say what?

2010-02-10T00:21:00.000-08:00

I don't understand your words
Your mixed meanings ring in my mind
Taking up all of my time
I spend every second
Trying so hard to define
This twisted relationship
Yours and mine

you point the finger

2010-02-01T22:31:00.000-08:00

I lie awake and cry
You made me out to be the bad guy
Your words slander my name
Scattering the pieces
Burning the blame
I took my responsibility
Held it over my head
With a big red arrow pointing down
I lay in my made bed
I can't call you out
Or make you take your blame
Because obviously they'll see it and look at you with shame
Don't worry love
Because those lies you told
Made everyone point my way
Making me live with it
Day after day

see the place where you use to live

2010-01-21T20:58:00.000-08:00

That is when we know. Know what?,you ask. Everything. When life as you know it ends,that is when you will know the answer to everything,the answer to any question you may have in life. Now, I am not pretending to be a teen profit,or some guru that has all the answers with a zen tone of voice,and I am just telling it like i see it,know it, believe it,feel it.

Life is funny, you know. We have so many questions that go mostly unanswered everyday,wether it be from lack of being heard,or lack of having the nads to ask, it happens. I know that if I aske a question, it is always my fault...always. And I usually,most of the time,take the blame. But then I never ask the one thing that is on my mind, "if the answer to the question I just asked you is me,then what about what you asked me? Is the answer you? Or am I to take the blame for that as well?" We are typically creatures of the unfortuante thing, that if something happens to us,then it is our doing....no one else but ourself can do anything about it.

I don't know why I rattled on about the first part, like I still am, but trust me I will eventually,after a converstation about biscuts, and something else I will eventually get back on the road I intended. But I must take this journey through the woods before I get back to the interstate.

All of this thought was brought up to me by myself, by the words of someone,which were said to me..."but I can't trust you like I use to..." Why not? I made a mistake,similar to ones I have made since I was born,and the ones I will make until I die? Because I usually see trust as a yes or no thing...and when maybe comes into play then things must be complicated. But since I tend to trust everyone, then I might not be one to even speak on the subject. Because I am still the same exact person I was before, a little more broken,and what have you, but....why is this happening now? The trust seemed to have left far before I ever did what I did,I did what I could.I did, what I wanted, because it seemed to fillthe hole left by the already misplaced trust,it seemed to. It is my fault, but. I don't know. An I am sure a pshychological evaluation of my mind would be able to reveal to you the meaning of what I am really trying to say,but I can't get that right now. I still trust you, with my life, even if you loose all trust in me eventually. I do trust you. I say yes. Just sayin.

Good new my new years resolution "wait for it" I am still going strong on keeping it. In my eighteen years of living I have never done that.

I am watching Death Becomes Her. This is the movie that was watched the evening "The Book" came about, came to life. A time when things were simple,complicated,life. At that point things were great, like a sisterhood. Still now thinking back, I would love to make a screenplay, and eventually a movie about "The Book." The things that happened,the things that were said,and the girls that it is about. But I haven't seen the book since beginning of my senior year in high schoo, and I don't know if it is even still in existance. But I hope to sometime get it in the natural rotation of things,and begin the work from idea to screen. With permission from the other 3 ladies involved.

Is it silly?

2010-01-12T22:56:00.000-08:00

Is it silly that I think I look good when I wake up most mornings?
Is it silly that music makes up most of my day anymore?
Is it silly that I have low self-esteem,yet secretly think I am awesome?
Is it silly that I really do wish I could go back and tell my younger self what to do so I wouldn't have so many regrets now?
Is it silly that I believe I have undiagnosed SAD,and think anything unusual going on with my body is cancer?
Is it silly that I won't settle for anything that does not make me happy?
Is it silly that I am unimpressed by fame in person?
Is it silly that I like to wake up slow, no matter what time of day I wake up?
Is it silly that I can sleep anywhere,but I have a before bed ritual for everywhere?
Is it silly that I know my family won't care that I have a new tattoo,but I still find it necessary to hide it from them?
Is it silly that I don't fear death in the slightest?
Is it silly that small moments in my life are the most memorable,and large events are the most forgotten?
Is it silly that I always turn my spoon upside down in my mouth before taking another bite when I eat ice cream?
Is it silly that I am sad about the fact I feel like I will never be good enough for her to talk to,like she did my other friend?
Is it silly that I feel alone in crowded rooms?
Is it silly that I feel more at home in other people's home rather than my own?
Is it silly that no matter how many people tell me I won't do it, I still think I can?
Is it silly that I know I am a screw up,and don't care?
Is it silly that I want people to read this...my whole blog...so they can get to know me better?
Is it silly to dream?
Is it stilly to imagine?
Is it silly?
I don't think so.
But then again,I am silly.

I Can Do It

2010-01-10T16:49:00.000-08:00

You can do it!

It won't happen!

So many mixed signals. All sent to me by those people who I should count on for support full on. But ever since my dreams,goals,and what not have become "unrealistic" "hard to get to"; those people no longer support me in the way they once did.

I have all the faith in myself to accomplish what I want in life.

I know i can do it!

Even if they don't...

Even if i have to encounter failure on the rise to my success in life.

I know I can do it!

To some, I am just a girl...I am a girl...true.

But I am not just a girl...I am Shawn Paige Turner...I am a talented,quixotic,amazingly quirky,beautiful on the inner and the outer,dream until the stars refuse to shine girl.

No matter what they say.

This is what I say...this is me.

My dreams.

My hopes.

My wishes.

You don't have to believe in me, just like they.

But I have to believe in my self.

So to me...

"You can do it!"

So can you.

The Chest That Holds The Treasure

2010-01-09T19:25:00.000-08:00

When things come to rest, it suppose to feel like peace,and inner calm that shows on the outer. Life can suck, or seemingly suck,but someone always has it worse than you. All the whining in the world will not change that.
Things can change.
People can change. Even if it does not seem that way,it is as true as ever. Maybe its them maturing,or the chance that one just decided something different that totally changed their life.
I don't believe in hate, but being human holds me to being a hypocrite sometimes...which leads me to confess that I do at times express...bleed hate.
But with a little music (All you need is love,don't you know its gonna be alright) I am brought back down to Earth; to realize that I will be fine,they will be fine,we will all be fine...the actions of so many seconds ago suddenly appear nonexistant.
Happiness is a warm gun,makes sense to only some of the most intent and insightful of people;typiccaly Beatles fans.
But what is happiness really? To me its a total content feeling with life,and myself...for the most part.
What is it to you? I don't know.
You can tell your reasoning or keep it to yourself,it is your secret to keep.
And if you don't believe that happiness is and existing thing...then I am truly sorry. But I hope that you look at your life...really look...really think. I hope you find it.

"I could be happy with all the money and possesions that I could ever want. But I also know I cold be happy living in my car or on the street. Its not about the treasure in the chest,but about the chest that holds the treasure."

Reality Alternate

2009-12-29T12:05:00.001-08:00

Sitting wrong side up on the couch

Feet dangling in the sky

Tears let not the plants die

Forgiveness came at midnight-noon

Mailed the letter to P.O. Box

Nowhere important

Where someone important

Reads "To whom it may concern"

The men of dreams?

Always present in the ladies mind

That is where their dreams tend to reside

"Dreams come true"

Could be considered fairy tale

But it just looks like reality to me

When our mind's image

Comes to life

little things

2009-11-20T20:55:00.000-08:00

This little thing
Invitation to "hang out"
This little thing
Being mentioned in the conversation
This little thing
A drive with the windows down
This little thing
Swinging on the swingset, together, in perfect sync
This little thing
Being spoken to directly by name
This little thing
Riding in the back seat of the "hot car"
This little thing
Sitting next to him
This little thing
Meeting someone new
These little things
Made the day
Thanks to you

can't forget regret

2009-10-03T13:45:00.000-07:00

Drip
Drop
The sound of rain
Like the sound of tears
Letting out the pain
Showing all my fears
All the wasted years
I wish that you were near
But I know you will never hear
I'm sorry my dear
My words falter to the darkness
This empty room
Hears nothing but the regret
Something you may
Some things I can never
Forget

POV

2009-08-10T00:16:00.000-07:00

Incorporate that song
Listen it
Feel it
Believe it
Make me want to
Do The same
Lets us soar not
On wings of eagles
But…
On the backs of pigeons
Seeing the world
In a different light
Believing that all things
are possible
Even from the strangest
Smallest
Point of view
Let the melody guide
Us…

you take me

2009-07-04T23:11:00.000-07:00

You grab me by the waist
You kiss my lips to yours
It was less than a year
My fears opened your doors

The night silent
Sticky like the sweat
It was created

You take my had
Lead me much deeper than
A threat
I dip in my feet

Such sweet resistance
It comes from the core
You take me by the soul

Open up the door
Not welcome anymore

You tangle me up
Like sheets
I lie in them no more
Closing the door

missing the muse

2009-07-04T23:02:00.000-07:00

Have I become empty?
Why can't I write it down?
There is pen and paper
All I do I lie down

I try so hard now
To make something flow
This blank girl
Is waiting for her muse to show

The time ticks by
All I can do is cry
All I can ask is why
Did my spirit have to die?

spin record round

2009-05-10T20:25:00.000-07:00

Unplug the chord
Turn off the power
Let down the needle
It is no longer comedy hour

Spinning around
Again and again
Pictures of yesterday
Slowly fade away
Barely knowing
Wanting
Wishing
You would stay

The time passes slowly
The hour hand is stuck on
3am
I must be lonely

It finally picks up
Things finally caught
Then the music ends
With a crackling halt

I would like to stay
All hours
All day
Eventually all will notice
I've gone away

We are still breathing
But we have been dead
For a while

Death to real love
Something that might last
No way moving all to fast

Too good to be true
What it seems to you
Silly me still hoping
This could pull through

But it ends tonight
No heart
Just vile
Because hey, thats whats in style
What it seems to you

into my reflection of self

2009-03-20T15:11:00.000-07:00

Self reflection
Its helping me
I am figuring out what
It means to me

Among the
Heartbreak
Tears
Anger
Lonlieness
Insecurity

I finally find myself happy

She Is Happy

2009-03-05T21:24:00.000-08:00

She wakes up greets the day
Not so long
Not far away
Beautiful like she knows
Messy but planned never knowing
What

The radio is broken
She sings her own song
The only tune her heart knows
It could be worse
Why make her own curse

People surround her
Some filled with love
Some filled with hate
It a test she takes every day
Somehow smiling the fears away

They all can't help but say
She is so happy today

My Secrets Make Me

2009-03-01T00:46:00.000-08:00

I hate secrets
They just create little bombs
I have many yes
I hate them just as much
True
The only reason I keep them
Is to hide who i really believe I am
Wretched
Disgusting
Ugly
Lonely
Depressed
All I want to do is make a list
Of all my secrets
All the twisted things I do
All the sick things I think
I want you all to know me to
You might put me me away
Shun me, you're through
But at least then you would know
That the girl you're seeing is true

Bullet for her Valentine

2009-02-22T19:54:00.000-08:00

She walks home every day
Hoping for a call that seems to far away
"I'm sorry" he would say
"Sorry for hurting you"
But that call never comes
She only gets the call that says
"I'm drunk"
"Come and get me now!"

No mother to mediate
She gets in the car
And drives to the broken down, shabby little bar
She looks at the scars and cries
When she sees the anger in her father's eyes
She knows what is to come
It has once, twice, three times been done

She tries hides best she can
Runs but is found again
But this time the road is a dead end
His fists hit hard
Her ivory skin turning blue
He tires and gets in
"Lets go home"
Now its almost 2 in the morning
What else can she do?

He crashes she cries
Outside on the front step
Her tears fall and dry
She dosnt want this anymore
She goes to her father's dresser drawer
Pulls out a handgun
Loaded for sure
She goes to the garage and closes the door
No word for goodbye
Only wanting to die

Finger on the trigger
Pointing to her head
She dosnt hear a gunshot
But shattering glass instead
Turns to the eyes of a stranger neighbor at best
His brown eyes beginning to bore
Her soul
"Dont" is all he says
Coming trough the window
Took the gun held her tight
"I called the police, its over tonight."

The red and blue lights promise her comfort
It ends tonight she sighed

A year later she has a new home
New parents that love her that would never do harm
She goes to his door step
Lays down a box with a note and a knock
She leaves

Coming to the door he sees
The box contains a bullet engraved with words
These
"You saved me."
And on the note what it said
He never knew the wind took it away with a gust that blew
Simple the little words that he already knew
"This is the bullet that almost killed me."
"This is the bullet that brought me to you."
"You saved me that night, forever I'm thankful."
"You saved my life that Valentines night, my life and my heart."
"This bullet is for you my Valentine. My guardian angel."
"I thank you.For giving me back my life."

In general : I'm a drifter, watch me go

2009-02-18T12:23:00.000-08:00

I didn't go to school today because of some reasons of self sadness. But oh am I over it now.
I just went outside and the day smells of summer, slightly warm with a nice breeze cutting in to dance with the sunshine. I got dog poo on my shoe on this outside trip...but all well.
I'm so ready for summer now that it's killing me.
After 13 years of thinking about summer dreading its end I'm certainly ready to be able to be excited about the end of summer, in term celebrating the coming of fall.
I have no real plans for my life...but the summer...the feeling makes me think that wherever the wind lands me....
I will be happy. In general.

Alexis inspires me

2009-02-17T21:08:00.000-08:00

I really want to give a shout out to one of my best friends in the world; Miss Alexis Hall! I love her so much, the optimistic way she looks at life makes me smile. She inspires me to do things that I love, and to be myself in doing these things. She is great in all her God given talents and imperfections. The girl is amazing!
Love you lots Alexis. <3

I'm making a list. Well a few. The things in life I want to do, need to do, should do...yes a DO list. I have been tweaking about a lot of things lately. And I don't really have the guts to say whats on my mind. But I've realized that when I say the things on my mind, get it out there...I feel so much better...So begins a newish era of self discovery.

articficial acid burns heavy

2009-01-25T10:11:00.000-08:00

Far longer than anticipation
Floods the veins of your existence
Hallucinations
Creations of your own

Her eyes light up like rainbows
Curves like the bottle you keep your genie in
Voice of a siren
Lures you in

The floating parade of clouds
Multi-colored insane asylum
Tasty cotton
Words are running dry

Dancing away you take the lady's hand
Prancing goodbyes to your cares
Falling senseless to the worldly dares
Risk nation

Angel takes a cut in
Denial
What is the best thing
You're the victim now my friend

You let go
Falling deeper
Connecting to all that has failed
Become better will you..?

Welcome
This is your artificial acid trip
Deception that never ends

Dear, Love

2009-01-17T20:56:00.000-08:00

Today I was looking through a huge stack of papers that are starts and almost finishes of stories and such that I've written. I found one that I started before I moved...It was kind of a secret. I never finished it...but think I'm in the right mind to now.
It starts out in a letter that the main girl is writing to her love whom she has not found yet...she is writing it in and to the love she dreams and hope and believes that she will find.
So enjoy reading, tell me what you think please. :) <3
Thanks so much.
Sincerely, Paige
Consider this my lost works.
____________________________________________________________

Dear,Love
I doubt at this moment I know you, or have even come to know of your existence. But I don't doubt the feelings I will have for you.
The deepest most sincere of feelings, so pure that describing it is not an easy task. I fear it may go unsubscribed forever
At this point I am all hoping you return these feelings.
My passion often scares people but you reading this, love, means you stayed long enough to find me out.
I love you for this.
Come cold, hot, rain, snow, hurricane, or tornado I will not stop. I think of you often, love. Then count all of the possible time differences between me and you there could be. I'm trying to figure out how we will, and come to be.
I listen to songs that I'm sure remind me of you, just to imagine the movement your mouth makes while you are singing to me. Oh, how I long to kiss that mouth love.
Someday. I will.
You understand what I'm saying, and as you recite my words back to me I know who you are. Love.
I'm not bound to marry a man, I can live and die alone if I so do wish...but love you have changed my mind!
I still wish I could describe my feelings for you. But these words in my mind jumble with this feeling in my heart that says "not good enough!"
You make me shiver in every loose and tightly knit fiber of my being.
Time space and courage may converge before you ever read this, but I will be kind in knowing that you eventually did read it.
Or.
We meet. Cross paths in the brink of changing lives and on this brink we love each other.
You will hurt me every time you call me when you are drunk, or utter to another girl.
I will hurt you every time I go to him when you hurt me, or I dash your pride.
Our trials will only lead us closer love.
In the end I think of nothing but you. Always.
Make in you and the universe is sensible again.
Love, whoever you are
wether be my black knight, prince on a white horse, jedi knight, guy in the band, or my average joe...I think of you always.
-Love, Love

drop the bomb.

2009-01-05T22:21:00.000-08:00

Forgive me
I've done nothing wrong
I'm sorry
I've taken so long

Its the fear

Fear of me
Fear of my heart
Fear of the words I might say
Fear of knowing I love you more everyday

Its scary
I love how it feels
But know how it can hurt

Crazy

I love it
Every stomach churning turn
Everything about it
I fear that I love it

I fear that I love you
I fear that if I tell you
The world will stop

My words drop like bombs
Blowing away every fear I had set
Waiting for the fallout

Really?
You do?
You love me to?

This is something I certainly never knew
So now it seems who really dropped the bomb
Is you

the angel.

2008-12-29T17:12:00.000-08:00

What is this?
What am I?
Becoming like someone with new sight
Seeing it all for the first time

Amazement makes my eyes
Glitters with hope
Sparkles with anticipation
I see what is going on around me

I dream

Words are falling out
Making myself known
One giant step for me
What do you see in me?

I see
An angel
Hope for the day that is here
My song

I went looking for a miracle
Looking in obvious dismay
Up and Down in the wrong direction

Thinking it to late
I'm to far gone in the wrong direction
Tap tap on the shoulder

I see my angel
My hope

It was you

The Pages

2008-12-15T10:32:00.000-08:00

I keep my life in a book
Call it a
Journal
Diary
Notebook
Whatever you want

I call it my lifes work
I write everything down
My thoughts
My dreams
And randomocity it seems

But it truly does hold my dreams
shaking them loose from my guarded mind
Finding their way to people in time

One day it could be on the shelves
Selling itself
But nobody really knows
Not even I
Because it might go unread till the day I die

Its my heart
My soul
My mind

On the pages I buy time
Make it like I never did before

All you ever wanted to know
Is here
Broken binding
Torn and stained pages
In this book

You'll find me

Almost New

2008-11-20T17:54:00.000-08:00

You make me feel guilty
For living
Crushed beneath the wheel
Burnt by the flame
I always feel that I'm to blame

Trying so hard
Swimming against a current
Screaming for help
You drown me in shame

Locked inside
No key to fit the door
The house is burning
To the floor

Mad
At myself

Because you make me feel guilty
For living
It's true

Forever beautifully broken
Far from
Almost new

Amazingly You and Me

2008-11-10T21:36:00.000-08:00

What were you thinking
Silly little girl
No time to pout
Change is upon you

Devastation came
It went
Standing up for yourself
Saying no
Choosing where you want to go

Smiles now outnumber
Frowns are rarely from the people
Now
Your light is back

They see it
And realize you were telling the truth
You found someone
Its odd to you how

Different
Life can be
Amazing

Just Like
You and Me

The Reality of this Romance

2008-10-14T19:40:00.000-07:00

School bell rings
Go out turn my phone on
Dial his number
He actually answers

"Are you at home?"
I ask
"Yeah."
He answers
"Ok. Well bye."
I hang up

Drive down the road
No caution in the wind
Drive up the driveway.

He meets me outside
I say nothing
Embrace him
Enjoy the moment

I dont know how long it will last
"I miss you"
"I know you want her and won't stop"
"I want you, and I won't stop"
"I couldnt live with out you knowing"
The words fall out like rain from the clouds

Shocked
Speechless
I'm walking away
He grabs me

Kiss me
He kisses me
I kiss back
We are both understood

Thats it the end

School bell rings
Go out turn my phone on
Dial his number
He dosn't answer

Drive down the road
Sitting at home
Wishing he and me
Could be

Reality

ghost of a girl

2008-10-04T20:04:00.000-07:00

Ghost Girl
She can't find her body
Follow the screams
Ecstasy and Pleasure
She knows better
Running from the truth
Of her actions
Forbidden the touch is
Searing and Electric alike

Ghost
Knows what is real
Screams of pain
Begs for it to stop
Waits for it to end
Fears what is happening
The mistake

Girl Ghost
I gasp
Back in my corpse
Living but dead inside
Its over
Now I feel the pain
Physical yes..but no
Emotionally I am barely alive

Girl
Alive on the oustide
Dead on the inside
My night as a ghost
Tore her apart

making sense of this romance

2008-10-04T14:52:00.000-07:00

Outside of my window
A melody filters into my ears
Memories playing like a favorite film
Of yesterday

I close my eyes
Release the tears
Turn my head thinking I can see

Your hurting me was
Unintentional
But how could you not know
Or understand that
Your the only thing that makes sense to me

Still to this moment
I know that is true
I'm singing along
To this tune made of all that is me and you

One step and I take a look and see that you are indeed
Outside of my window with your radio
Trying to make sense of this thing we have
One million songs could have hummed through my mind

But it was that one
So its time for us to decide
Where we are now
Together or apart

Till death do us part
I do
Live this Romeo and Juliet type of
Undefined romance
With you
The only thing that will ever make sense to me

Without

2008-09-27T22:23:00.000-07:00

Where were you?
Why didn't you come?
What was your reason?...
It better be good.
It was much less fun without you.

My reason

Thats stupid.
You just didn't want to go.
Here look at these pictures.
You would have fun.
You should have came.

Yeah.
I see.
Smiles...
Happiness...
Joy...
And I wasn't there.

So don't tell me.
What you already know is classifying you a
Hypocrite.
Because I know what you know

You had fun without me.
Being there wouldn't have changed anything.
So why care now?
Because in the end...
It would have been the same.

With or
Without...
Me

Leading Me

2008-09-22T20:31:00.000-07:00

Its an amazing thing
This little life I'm gifted
Each day no matter what
I think about it all

Family that loves me
Has my back no matter what
They want to see me happy
As simply complicated that just is

Friends that keep me insane
That help me laugh
That want to be there even though I'm truly horrible
They know my darkest of secrets
But I know they can be trusted to keep them

Times might get rough
Discouraging life may get
Times like those I have to sit
Take a moment to remember what's great

Remember that God gifted me another day
To figure it out
Live for the right reason
Do what he bids

I have a purpose
I know what I must do
Be true to myself
And know that God is leading me through

Content Loner

2008-09-15T20:59:00.000-07:00

Each day I wake up not wanting to go to school...and its not because I just don't want to.
I hate wasting all these beautiful days inside....I wouldn't mind if I wasn't confined to such a area where I can be myself but I am judge by my opinions.

I use to dread going to school for the first few weeks because I didn't have anyone to hang out with..but when I did I found myself more confined than I did when I was alone. I didn't know why I felt this way, and it drove me insane almost every night since school started I've cried myself to sleep trying to figure out things about myself.

After a while of thinking...a near death experience...a good sleep...and a nice day, I realize why I felt that way. I am content with being a loner in atmospheres like school, because I want to be classified as me. Not as them. In a place where someone walks in and try to figure out what group you are in. I am my own person, and I want to be seen as that.
I have my close and good friends who get that, and I don't mind being classified with them but we are all different enough in personality that we are considered a group of different people.

I'm not saying that I'm against meeting new people, because I love making new friends, but I'm better at on on one convo because its a chance to get to know somone and them to get to know you without the influence of the rest of the crowd...and vice versa.

Today, I got told that I intrigue someone to the point of confusion. I was called different, because I believe something and I believe it on my own accord, and that I look confident being a "loner."
I use to despise that, being classified.
But after recent reflection...I can say at this point I am proud to be considered a "loner."
Content with myself. And my life.

Don't be

2008-09-11T22:17:00.000-07:00

My passion
Did it does it scare you
I cant help it
Its in my blood

I let it spill out
Hoping it will get people to understand
That all of the things I say are
Real within me

Day after day
I go on hoping
That you mean it when you say
"I get it."

I only hope that when I tell you this
You wont run
They all run
I'm just hoping you won't be just
Another face in the crowd

You're my connection
That opposite side
Who doesn't have to be told twice
Don't dissapoint me

Don't be just like
Them

The Magic 8 Ball

2008-09-10T22:37:00.000-07:00

Hanging upside down off the edge of the couch
You're on the floor, twisting my hair
Sends shivers down my spine
You tell joke
I laugh

Magic Eight ball held promise this night
Simple fun
My realizing game
You ask a question, and so do I
Little did we know
Our questions were bound together

I won't tell
Neither will you
We argue for hours
That's nothing new

Tag you're it!
I nearly fall down your voice rings
"You cant catch me."
I made a deal
So did you

If I catch you
I will tell you
You will tell me
What we asked the Eight Ball
What made us go weak in the knees

Ah Ha!
I did it.
You are down for the count.
Silly boy.
I caught you, and I have the bruise to prove it.

Sitting on the couch you and I.
This moment is electric.
My head is on your shoulder, and our hands are warm together.
Blowing in my face you tickle my nose with mint.
We become closer.

The brush of lips we barely touched.
Our revealed questions aren't new.
It should be a crime for us to do that much.

Because the morning comes, and the sun rises.
We go back to our living device.
Both with knowing in our eyes.
Dry mouths we turn around and walk away.

I am taken by him.
You are taken by her.
Both good people we don't deserve.
How could we have the nerve?

Truth became of that night.
A truth we haven't soon forgot.

The Magic Eight Ball knew all.
Does he love me? I asked a simple question.
Does she love me? He asked a simple question.
Both met with the same blinding ittle white letters.
It simply said yes.

Her

2008-09-10T12:46:00.000-07:00

I'm not her
That girl
The one of your
Dreams

Keep me awake
These thoughts of you
Screaming
Profane things

Plauge my mind
My distorted self-image
Anyting but
Fine

I want you to know
You guessed
I said
No!

Because I knew
You don't want me

You will never
Want me

If you ever do
Want me

You will never
Tell me

So I cry
Because I'm still
Believing
I'm not

Her

Why I Write

2008-09-10T12:45:00.000-07:00

What do I do?
I'm so confused
How can I do the things I do
To you

I'm only spilling my heart out
On paper
I'm best revealed
To you

Misinterpreting design
So you can't tell
I'm speaking to you
Directly to you

What about now?
My mind is blind with want
My future is a design not yet created
In the works

For now I just write
Hoping
Praying
That these word are
Understood

Not by the masses
By myself
To you I hopefully write

Why, do, say

2008-09-06T10:15:00.000-07:00

Why waste time with the nerves
Why waste time with the doubts
Why waste time waiting

Do it before you forget what you were doing
Do it before you chicken out
Do it before its to late
Do it before she walks away

Say what you want
Say what you mean
Say everything

Play, Dance, Act

2008-09-02T19:19:00.000-07:00

Where did that hope go?
It went with her name
I want the whole satisfaction
of knowing that you said mine instead
I want to be your hope
your relief

I walk with my head down
Playing for a fool
Dancing in the rain
Acting insane
Thinking of life before you came

I tap to the beat sing
Standing on two own feet
Trying to catch the eye
The beautiful one
Who sees me for me
Everyday you speak to me
I keeping growing weak

I walk with my head level
Playing for a fool
Dancing in the rain
Acting insane
Thinking of life the day you came

Its my time hope I do it right
The lyrics in my head
I hear you say my name instead?
Shock becomes me
I say it
I sing it
I mean it
All for you
I want to be your hope
Because you've become mine

So

I walk with my head high
Seeing whats inside
I play for a fool
Dance in the rain
Act insane
Think of life
My life everyday with you

Love Song Tale

2008-09-01T18:10:00.000-07:00

With every lyric of this song
I think of how you held me close
And how you did nothing but look me in the eyes
How you seemed so sincere
Every lyric of this song
Makes me remember that one moment in time
With you
When all stood still and it was
You and I
Each lyric of this song makes me remember the moment I realized that
I was In Love with you
Because every lyric of this song makes me think about how every
Stupid little argument
Silly joke and
How Everything
Everything
Made me love you

In The Broken Mirror

2008-08-30T09:52:00.000-07:00

I speak so highly
of a person to the others
to only have them
come and dissapoint me
shatter my soul and
tangle my heart strings
wow so this is what i get
when i look after you
I guess I was in over my head
with words I didnt know to
pronounce
so now
we all look in the
broken mirror
I
the others
a person
and see broken images
of us
I see a fool
the others see a fool
a person sees a fool
look who's laughing now

Never Before Seen

2008-08-30T09:46:00.000-07:00

It doesn't sting
Like is should
I'm fine
It feels good
I smile out of pure happiness
To fret over it is to
Regret
I regret nothing
At one point it was exactly
What I wanted
Sparing a new tone
I say the lyrics
And hope
One day
One how
One way
One person
The person comes along
To complete
The song
I'm looking for a
Not so ever after
I'm looking for a
Never Before seen in theatres
Kind of romance
So let's make the headlines
Top the charts
And show them how a
True love
Story
Starts
Because in reality not all things come to an
End
