I love the way I wear Timberlands and Docs like I'm an original, and I think that they make me seem edgy. I love the way I hum tunelessly on the bus and mouth lyrics instead of singing them because I can't sing. I love how free I feel when it's cold, and how I run down the centre of my road when it's dark and spin around with my arms out like angel wings. I love the way I notice my own little habits and wish that someone would notice them too, then give me a cup tea and let me snuggle whilst wearing a big jumper. I love the way I think that love can fix people, even though I know it breaks us. I love the way I refuse to talk about feelings, and yet they are always there, churning on the tip of my ******* molten chaos. I love the way I hate myself 80% of the time and love myself for the other 20% And I love the way I find loopholes and beauty and wish for everyone else because I want people to be happy more than I want to be. I love how I'm not perfect or skinny or pretty and I love how I'll never be loved, but I love so, so much how, even though I've had so many impediments, I've kept going, and I love how, still, through all this; I can learn to love myself.
