everyone wants to be
EXTRAORDINARY.
significant
glorified
and memorable
I would be lying to you
If I told you I was any different
though lately,
I've been thinking a lot about
SAFETY.
how swallowing your
electric individuality
and concealing your
perfect imperfections
hurts less.
because when you are
silent
submissive
and forgettable
you don't need to worry
about people taking
more of you
then you want to give.
they don't want it anymore.

darling, you've done a number on me.
