There's so much out there you know?
Life, and culture, and secrets, and
Adventure.
I mean here I am stuck in a backwards place,
with a pessimistic attitude and a complete devotion
to beauty and art that spills out of me.
And I'm terrified that I'll never get to see it all,
the beauty of the world, that I'll never travel
and discover the greatness of people's stories,
or see the happiness and hope in someone's eyes
that I wish I had.
And I keep thinking what if I never get out of here?
What if I never live like I want to,
risk to risk, no attachments to a **** family
or a soul ******* job.
That would **** me,
not this stupid illness in my brain
or the pain in my life,
but the feeling that I'll never
see the world, that I'll never
be who I want to be.
I don't want that.
So, I'll start my adventure
as soon as I can,
and if you feel like this,
please, just go, and live
like I want to.
From risk to risk.
