I had a very childlike rage
And a very childlike loneliness.
“before you die, experience the love of a writer, poet or painter.
if you’re lucky enough to be an artist’s muse, they will immortalise you.”
- Soledad Francis
I’ll be your muse ✨
When Lorde said, “I thought I was a genius, but now I’m twenty-two.” and when Lorde said, “I’m tryna get well from the inside.” and when she said, “We had no idea the dreams we had were far too big.” and when she said, “‘Cause we are all broken and sad.”
When twenty one pilots said,
“Like a little splinter buried in your skin
Someone else can carve it out, but when you’ve got the pin
It hurts a little less and you can even push it further in
When your body’s screamin’ out, trust your mind’s listenin’”
and when they wrote,
“I don’t want to go on like this
At least let me clean my room
I don’t want to leave like this
‘Cause the last thing I want to do is
Make my people make decisions
Wondering what to do, oh
Should they keep it on display
Or redecorate?”
and when they sang,
“Ain’t no sunny skies, 'til you finally realize
That everybody relies on synthetic highs
They find someone to prescribe
Keep your bliss
There’s nothing wrong with this
We just wanna feel it all
Keep your pills, save your breath
And don’t ever forget ”
I’m glad I got to experience the experiences that I experienced. They left scars and heartaches behind but I am who I am because of it. All of the colours added to my life that is indeed a masterpiece. Pure flesh-tearing art. I suffer for the beauty. Art indeed.
“A golden cage is still just a cage.”

“All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts.” (William Shakespeare)

Cassandra: Poor woman! Poor dead woman! … Yea, it is I, poured out like the water among them. Weep for me… Ah! What is this place? Why must I come with thee? To die, only to die?
