every foolish dream.
I was in a bubble of happiness, in my own balloon of joy, seeing the world in a different light. I wanted everyone to feel this way, to celebrate this feeling together. At peace with the world. All that jazz.
Eventually, though, every balloon deflates. Every bubble bursts. With time, or on purpose. How could I forget that? I’ve seen it happen enough times.

it must be true.
I don’t have a stalker. I’m almost 100% certain that this is true on account of never having seen said stalker. My little sister tells me otherwise, although why anyone would choose to stalk me, I would not know. It’s not like I’m famous or anything. And I don’t care how many times she’s claimed to have seen a fluffly black head in a bush, behind a bin, in a...
