I've held someone's hands out of fear, I've been so afraid, to the point of not even feeling my hands. I've believed in perfect loves, I've already discovered that they don't exist. I've loved people who let me down, I've let people down who loved me. I've lied and regretted it later, I've already told the truth and I also regretted it. I've already pretended not to care about the people I loved, to later cry quietly in my corner. I've smiled crying tears of sadness, I've cried from laughing so hard. I've believed in people who weren't worth it, I've stopped believing in those who really were. I've had fits of laughter when I couldn't. I've screamed when I should shut up, I've shut up when I should scream. Many times I stopped saying what I think to please some, other times I said what I didn't think to hurt others. I've already invented stories with happy endings to give hope to those who need it. I've dreamed too much, to the point of confusing it with reality. I've fallen countless times thinking I wouldn't get back up, I've gotten up countless times thinking I wouldn't fall anymore. Don't give me the right formulas, because I don't always expect to get it right. Don't show me what's expected of me, because I'll follow my heart!

Don't make me be what I'm not. I don't know how to love in half, I don't know how to live on lies.''I can't fly with my feet on the ground, I can't love in perfect darkness,
