I've always loved to sing,
and what more there is to love
than my favorite little mermaid?

Who sings of exploring that shore up above?
Wish I could be...

Part of your world.

If only.

Stop acting like we were meant to be
I don't love who you are, nor will I ever
crushes when we're 13 don't count,
So stop acting like they do

I fell in love with a girl,
and so did you
so ******* act like it.

generation me,
the selfie generation,
lazy,
selfish,
going nowhere,
mean,
reckless.

but what the 'great generation' and those who came before us don't understand,
is that we are a generation all our own,
akin to the hippies,
and radical youngsters in the 60s,
fighting against our parents in our own way.

we are owning ourselves and our bodies.
we are breaking free from their grasps
through our sexuality
our selfies
our words and our actions.

we are a generation who is owning ourselves and how we feel
we are revolutionary ourselves.

Thank you for giving me someone relatable.
Thank you for the laughs.
Thank you for the character I'll strive to be.
And the romance that I can find.
Thank you for teaching me I can be strong.
For telling me I don't have to be elaborate to be happy.
Thank you for telling me to follow a dream.
Thank you for showing that villains can be close, or far.
Thank you for the songs that get stuck in my head.

When I say "I love you", I'm platonic

I love someone else, but I want you to be loved.

I want you to have hugs and people to pay attention to you.

But, I'll never love you like I love her.

I'd like for you to stop romanticizing death.

For suicide to be considered the last option.

Because it's a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

And I can assure you, you will survive.

I've witnessed one person lose their life, blood streaming to the floor with terrified eyes.

I had another attempt to take her life just last week, swallowing pills like they were candy, until their scream of "betrayl" meant nothing.

My best friend struggles everyday, do fight the urge to paint her wrist, the razor her utensil.

So please stop romanticing these things.
Stop saying "It's not selfish" or "They just don't understand".

Because we do, you just won't let us help.

My body is a canvas;
And whether I decorate it with
Tattoos or cuts
Shouldn't be your problem.
