no longer lend your strength to that
which you wish to be free from.
Fill your life with love and bravery,
and you shall live a life uncommon.

it would be we're all okay,

and useless in times like these.
I won't be made useless.
I won't be idle with despair,

Light does the darkness most fear.

You're so shallow.

A man who will Kiss the Flame.

We all should choose our friends carefully.
I used to think that no one could know me better than somebody else,
because you're inside yourself, your body, you can't see yourself.
If you think like that, you surround yourself with
other people who are willing to tell you who you are,
which are usually judgmental people ...
we should really surround ourselves with the ones
that adore us and believe in the highest of us.
