People don’t see the world for what it is. They see their circle of friends, their social status. They don’t think about the deeper meaning in anything. They don’t realize that we’re all people. We all have hopes and fears and dreams and weaknesses and strengths, and to really live life you have to embrace all of them. You can’t hide behind a mask of what society has decided is normal. Find something you love, whether other people understand it or not. Change the world in a way that only you can.

We never talk anymore, you pretend to laugh at my jokes. 

But someday I'll see you again and I'll smile and you won't. 

And I'll try to talk and you'll pretend it's okay.

But I'll know all the things you're too polite to say. 

And I'll sense your disinterest and say something obscene.

And you'll just sigh and say you need to leave. 

And as you walk away part of me will die inside.

I know I could never get you back, but at least I could have tried.
