i always heard that it's good to take a step back and look at everything. so i did. i realized that my life is Not color and pink skies. it's full with people whom i call friend who don't bat an eye if i fall, full with family who laugh when my heart bleds from their words, full with trauma and thoughts that haunt me and hold me back without even me realizing it. i want to be free from all of this. i've tried painting the canvas white over and ove yet buckets of spilled paint seep through the binding, never letting me forget of everything i've tried to run from. i don't want my life to be color anymore. if this is living, i don't want it.
