But mostly I’m angry at myself.

I’m angry at every word that comes out of my mouth, and every single move I make, every glance I sneak, and every little tear that falls out of my eyes.

And no, I don’t hate myself. I have this raging sea of fury inside me that I, and only I, have caused myself.

I am what anger is made of, let me be.

He makes my heart grow fond of the things I didn’t think I would have ever been able to catch myself thinking of.

Fond of the sky, fond of the sea. Fond of the moon & the stars, and all that is in between.

As time goes by, they say it becomes less difficult; how would they know? Have they been where I am? Do they feel what I feel?

They don’t. They only pretend so they some day, maybe just some hell of a day, it’ll get easier and they can scream “I told you so.”
