thoughts running away from my mind

There are things we can never forget. There are dreams we're not willing to get lost with, to run away from, so they keep tormenting you till the day you're gone. Maybe they're all trying to say something.
-They?
Yes, your own dreams. The thoughts you thought were too wild for reality. But oh dear, they are real. If you open your eyes and you find the good looks of charming death hanging around, smile my friend, it is not close enough to take you, only to break a piece of you, to crack your mind open so you can finally breathe, relieved.
We learn by not thinking, by acting. To act is the first step to live. Yes, I've discovered it last year.

I'm nothing that I wish I were. I wish I was taller, skinnier, prettier, smarter. But whatever the hell I'm supposed to do here on earth I'll hold on to it with all the strength I own and I shall release it. After all, all I can really do to change the world is being who I am.
