I've been wondering how to put this into words for months,
the aching feeling of missing something you haven't quite experienced,
how to long for something like you've had it before but never have,
I've come to the conclusion that I'm either suffering from a mild case of 'your crazy',
or the much realer and scarier version of my thoughts,
I have become homesick of a home I have yet to venture to,
and after much thought I feel this must be true,
but the scary thing is that I still have not a clue what to do.

the thing that really ***** about betrayal,
is that its always by someone you love
no matter how small or big,
psychical or emotional
it still packs the same punch
it still hurts like hell
and it still leaves you sad, broken, and alone.

People are not flat and uninteresting,
they are more than their sexuality,
more than their race or ethnicity,
they are more then  their diseases and their disorders,
a person should not be judged based on a single factor of their lives,
they shouldn't be hated for loving a show or finding comfort in reading something you may not particularly care for at all,
people are more than their singular qualities,
People are complex,
People are beautifully and undeniably complex in a thousand bound and unbound wires that knot and twist and turn to form a being,
People are not these things at all,
People are these things as a whole.
forgive me i was crying writing this

Be
Be Brave and Be Outspoken,

Be Beautiful and Be Wise,

Be Stubborn and Be Heroic,

Be Rebellious and Be Crazy,

Be Strong and Be Kind,

because at the end of the day,

when all is said and done,

you will have no regrets.

The world as i see it,
it may be to late,
suffering loudly but people ignore them,
emotional dagger's searing pain,
people are scared, angry, and hopeless,
people are helping but many are selfish,
most can not see past their safe house boundary,
thinking the world is at peace not in misery,
Wake up and see the real happenings of our globe,
Bullied people, Starving people,
They rely on the help of other's,
we rely on our job's we depend on our material's,
no one is at peace in this world,
a world filled with hatred, love, sadness, excitement and unhappiness,
Wake up,  See the world as it truly is,
see the unedited uncut version of how we are living,
we may see our country as healthy and rich,
but  many poor live in poverty here,
many unhealthy big and to small,
diseases are common but people frown upon mention,
people are constantly dyeing babies to elder's,
Wake up i beg of you,
see our world truly,
we all see it sometimes as awful and painful,
we regret what we've seen and remove it from memory,
even I even you have done these things,
how can we say we hate our life,
how can we want to **** ourselves,
when other have it worse,
living in poverty,
starvation and pain,
how can we think we have it at the worst when really we are much better off,
life does not make sense,
life can never be completely sorted out,
all problems will exist forever,
peace will never stay forever,
Wake up and see our world truly,
for if we wait to long,
if we think to hard,
if we shy away to much,
and ignore the more needy,
our world will very well be like theirs.
all problems are relevant

I always had this idea of a perfect life,
getting into the perfect university and meeting 'the one',
getting a well paying job and having a big family,
but somewhere I got lost in a deep pit of self-desire,
my hopes and dreams slipping away into a darker and more adventurous,
tumultuous and chaotic free-spirited rebel;
All i want now is to try new foods,
meet new people and make amazing friends,
I want to travel and have fun,
I  just want to live large
and buy a one-way ticket far away and not come home .
