Are they just words?


I am just a shadow in this heartless world of correction. Everything around me seems like perfection. To get a word out to the world is a dream come true. The world will just take over and won't let you be you. I can't face the truth that this world is cruel to the people who are not the same. This world was built on lies so who are we to blame. Who I am is suddenly important to this world.I am nothing but another song writing girl. You don't see me? how different I can be. Maybe if you looked close you might like me. All I am to the world is a writer, another sob story of a lifeless generation that can't see. All they want to do is live life and be free. They know I am here; They know I care. No matter how much we yell nobody is there. I write for the defenseless and the shy people who feel like they don't belong. I write for the ones who are believed to be wrong.

I am a minority in the world that has a voice to be heard. It's up to you if you want to hear my story. Trust me it is worth hearing. I talk the truth and I speak my mind. If you don't like what I have to say I encourage you to not copmment hate. If not I understand because the world is filled with cruel people who like to hate. Just be yourself!
