Do you believe In fate Or is everything just strung together like a series of mistakes on a thread. I’m happy now That’s what I keep repeating to the reflection in the mirror. Happy. What a stupid broad word. This digital world we live in. Where our only memories live in our phones. Mindless. Meanwhile we’re killing each other over our complexion. My person asks me why I cry so much and all I respond with is why wouldn’t I. Everything hurts and I don’t know how to bandage myself. Am I even healing if I’m just covering it all up? I miss writing with a pencil or a pen scribbling all my thoughts and mishaps. Now when We feel things we post something to covey even the littlest amount of emotion. A picture is worth a thousand words. But what are our words worth?
