*ARE WE THE SAME....?*

missfit88

When you were younger, did you used to draw the sun in the corner of the page like me?

Did you also believe that the world was once in black and white just like tv?

Were the thoughts in your head freely expressed, 

just like the feelings you told them you had.

At least you said......

Didn't you?

No, they never asked.....so you lied "I'm okay, I'm fine" instead.

 

A few years pass....

Was that when you realised that all that didn't matter?

Just like me.....

Was that around the time your not so perfect bubble popped, and your inocent childlike view started to shatter?

    Yes, we are

    The bubble popped, and since then life has been violent sometimes, and I can't say for sure what or who I am. But, I have a lot more fun nowadays 🙂

    I'm not sure I ever had freedom of expression. Maybe when I was too young to think negative thoughts or too young to be able to express them in the first place. I did draw the sun in the corner of the page sometimes though. But I've always seen the earths million colours, but that might be because I was friends with the earth long before I discovered tv. Great write today.
