"I wouldn't be happy.", by ~!s@v@n_n@h!~ Subscribe to rss feed for ~!s@v@n_n@h!~

"Why don't you be more like them?"
"I wouldn't be happy."

"Why don't you try to be more thin? Like her?"
"I wouldn't be happy."

"Why don't you listen to music we all can understand?"
"I wouldn't be happy."

"Why don't you try to do more for me then you?"
"I wouldn't be happy."

"...Why?"
"I don't want to be more like them because I am more than
enough. I know that because I have him. I don't want to be
more thin because he tells me I am perfect. I don't listen
to music you cannot hear. You just aren't listening. I don't
try to do for you more than me because you are stronger than
me. I am weak, thats why I need him. We are all weak. Just
some are weaker than others. We all need someone or
something to fall back on. To know there is something to
pick you up. Wether that is drugs, alchol, a love, a whore,
or a family member. We all want something more than we have
but, the secret to having it is to cherish less than you
have. Because drugs soon run out, alchol dries out, a love
can always turn into a hate, a whore runs out when you do,
and a family member can always die. Always take less and set
your goals on more. Hearts break, bodies tire, and we all
are exhasted. Just know that you are alive and everything
will be fine...Your'e alive. I am alive. Why can't that be
enough?"
