Each night I look at the bright sky and think to myself: how nice would it be if I could just fly away? Without fear, and without looking back. And to leave everything behind. Without fear and shame. To let to go of things tethering me--feelings I want to hide and thoughts I'd rather bury at the deepest recesses of my mind. Thoughts so cluttered even I would drown in them: words, images, memories, and feelings. I would rather escape them. But all these are part of me; escape is futile. I could embrace them. I am not perfect, and I should accept that imperfection is part of me. I should accept that chaos is not always bad. I should accept that there is beauty in chaos. I am chaotic. I am beautiful.

Imperfection
Each night I look at the bright sky and think to myself: how nice would it be if I could just fly away? Without fear, and without looking back. And to leave everything behind. Without fear and shame. To let to go of things tethering me--feelings I want to hide and thoughts I'd rather bury at the deepest recesses of my mind. Thoughts so cluttered even I would drown in them: words, images, memories, and feelings. I would rather escape them. But all these are part of me; escape is futile. I could embrace them. I am not perfect, and I should accept that imperfection is part of me. I should accept that chaos is not always bad. I should accept that there is beauty in chaos. I am chaotic. I am beautiful.
