Green tea equations and cigarettes and a distinct lack of food and dark night lovely lonely walks and maybe tomorrow she will wake in a life where she can love all parts of herself. Can you feel that? What a wondrous sensation. She takes cold hands and questions and buries them in that empty stomach that sings loudest when she fails at sleeping. This girl with worn patches and an overwhelming sense of irony; there's too much to her but still she is not enough.

An accurate self-portrait.
Green tea equations and cigarettes and a distinct lack of food and dark night lovely lonely walks and maybe tomorrow she will wake in a life where she can love all parts of herself. Can you feel that? What a wondrous sensation. She takes cold hands and questions and buries them in that empty stomach that sings loudest when she fails at sleeping. This girl with worn patches and an overwhelming sense of irony; there's too much to her but still she is not enough.
