2. I'm more than just a picture. I'm a daughter and a sister. Sometimes it's hard for me to show. That I'm more than just a rumor. Or a song on your computer. There's more to me than people know. Somedays I'm broke, somedays I'm rich. Somedays I'm nice. somedays I can be a bitch. Somedays I'm strong, somedays I quit. I don't let it show, but I've been through some shit. I can swear, I can joke. I say what's on my mind. If I drink, if I smoke. I keep up with the guys. And you'll see me holding up my middle finger to the world. Fuck your ribbons and your pearls. 'Cause I'm not just a pretty girl. || Pretty Girl - Maggie Lindemann

1. If I stay here any longer, I will stay here forever till the echo of my shadow is gone. There are heroes within us, there are lovers around us. They will be here forever, I know.

2. And the heart is hard to translate. It has a language of its own. It talks in tongues and quiet sighs. In prayers and proclamations. In the grand deeds of great men and the smallest of gestures. In short shallow gasps. But with all my education I can't seem to command it and the words are all escaping, and coming back all damaged and I would put them back in poetry if I only knew how. I can't seem to understand it. And I would give all this and heaven too, I would give it all if only for a moment that I could just understand the meaning of the word you see, 'cause I've been scrawling it forever but it never makes sense to me at all.

3. I'm on an endless march to nothingness with breath inside my chest and the promise of a life that you deserve, that you thought best. I'm stuck inside my loneliness, I'm stuck inside my grief, I wish I could have been there to save you from the reach. I am spiteful like a god, I seek your vengeance like the rest for what they did to you, I will never lay to rest. It's raw and unrelenting, it is absolute regression. It is vileness wrapped up and disguised as happy endings.

I just wanna find a God and I hope she loves me too.
