Favorite Quote:
There is freedom waiting for you,
On the breezes of the sky,
And you ask "What if I fall?"
Oh but my darling,
What if you fly?
-E.H.


I am quiet and reserved
I wonder where I am meant to be
I hear my thoughts trying to escape
I see my imagination all around me
I want to be me
I am quiet and reserved

I pretend I am someone I’m not
I feel confined within myself
I touch the world inside my head knowing I can’t go
I worry I am getting lost in reality searching for who I really am
I cry thinking about how childhood is taken away
I am quiet and reserved

I understand reality has an image picked out for you
I say I am my own person, who I want to be
I dream of worlds where that is true
I try to say true to who I am
I hope some day that can actually be true
I am quiet and reserved
