&quot;She left pieces of herself everywhere she went. &#039;It&#039;s easier to feel the sunlight without them,&#039; she said.&quot;<br /> &quot;Even after everything, this world is beautiful.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We all have different reasons for forgetting to breathe&quot;

you can say I’m a dreamer ,
but not that I am unrealistic .
You can say that I don’t know what I’m doing ,
but not that I’m crazy .
You can say that I’m young , insecure , tired ,
but not that I’m depressed .
You can say that I’m independent ,
but not that I am alone .
Don ‘t act like you know me , you don ‘t ,
but I do and I am happy .

I 'm tired of people acting like they know , when in reality they only know what I tell them .
