I was born on December 3rd, 1996
My girlfriends say that makes me a sagittarius
I have no idea what that means but,
they say that one of my "traits" is that I'm stubborn
and I will tell you right now that it's not true//
I'm 5'4", think I have been since 6th grade
I weigh 134 lbs//
I failed swimming classes at my local recreation center when I was 6
Something about not being able to swim backwards
I've been struggling in the art of keeping composure when a stressful situation comes//
Maybe my limbic system is acting up//
But I can't hate my brain because the right side is my best side and my best side likes to paint dreams with constant tears on a canvas called pillow//
Some people say that modern art is ugly, shallow and pointless//
And I would have to agree because these feelings that occur are so ugly and come from the shallow side of me which is my worst side and my worst side likes to write pointless, depressing stories//
And I start to read them, and reread them
Like my favorite series//
Soon I believe that these stories are actually true
and that the piece of modern art God supposedly created himself, titled "Me"
Is ugly, shallow and pointless
spoken word (the // are like pauses/breaths)
