she lives for the instances when someone falls into her hearthole and grieves at murals of stains and misgivings within her. who can understand… firmly believe, without a doubt, there isn’t anything wrong with her. ignorance and indifference try and try to distress her sorry heart into pitiful strings and worthless threads… unweave and quench out everything living within her....

believe it or not,
I am as tender as your favorite bedtime story but I can be a hard, stubborn, rip-you-apart-for-your-own-well-being kind of child.
I noticed, being a christian, I would hide that “negative” part… I guess because I felt obligated to and was listening to a monstrously destructive lie. GASP, I’m a sinner. OF COURSE, I AM. That’s why I follow God....
