You try so hard. You try so hard to be perfect. You try so hard to please everyone. You try to be real, so you wear sweatpants and sneakers. You try and fit in, so you straighten your hair and wear eye liner. You try and be you, so you listen to what you like. You want to fit in, so you listen to rap, too. You put so much thought into what you eat and who's around. You try so hard to be the best at what you do. You come out on top. You try so hard to involve everyone because you've been them. You try to let them come out on top with you because you what it's like to try so hard and still lose. You try, try try. Then someone else shows up and does nothing. She wears whatever she wants, listens to whatever she likes, eats what she wants, when she wants, and is always number 1. He get's all the girls and is the most athletic. They're smarter. They're stronger. They're more attractive. They're on top of things. They're better. And they don't even have you try. It's not fair that they can always get the best without trying, when you barely get acceptable and try too hard.

The worst thing one can do is not to try, to be aware of what one wants and not give in to it, to spend years in silent hurt, wondering if something could have materialized -- and never knowing.

You smile as if you haven't smiled in years.
When you laugh, it seems you only just remember how.
You're happy, but it seems a foreign concept to you.

I see what it's like for day and night,
NEVER TOGETHER, CAUSE THEY SEE THINGS IN A DIFFERENT LIGHT.
Like us, but they never tried, like us. ♥

Wait a second,
why should you care,
what they think of you
when you're all alone,
by yourself,
do you like you?
do you like you?

You’re a teenager. You’re not only still learning about yourself, you’re still forming. This is a time for phases, and that’s not a bad thing. Revel in phases like you’ve never been old enough to before and will never be young enough to do again.
Try phases. Wear ugly nail polish. Dip-dye your hair. Cut it all off. Cry about that. Wear hats and wigs or not. Pierce your bellybutton with a sewing need and ice and have it get infected and ooze puss on your favorite shirt and learn why you’ll get all other piercings done at a shop. Weep yourself sick over things you’ll think are stupid in six months, six days, or six hours… or things that will scar your heart until you’re 80. Know that you’ll survive. Eat an entire cheesecake because your metabolism is young. Try wine coolers and learn that they are disgusting and a sip of Shiraz you’ll need a job to afford and that can be disgusting too. Be a poet this week and don’t shower and wander around barefoot at night thinking deep thoughts until you step in dog poop, then be a photojournalist, and then an activist, then a vegan, and then a misanthropic nihilist. Get your heart broken. Survive it. Be fifteen versions of yourself in sixteen weeks and try on selves life blue jeans until you find one that fits for now that makes you feel amazing and know that it’s okay if it doesn’t fit later because you are still growing and there are always more on the shelves and in weird little thrift stores and you can even sew your own. Kiss boys, kiss girls, kiss people that are neither or both, kiss puppies and babies, kiss pictures of celebrities and old books. Kiss being a teenager- deeply, wetly, messily- before you have to kiss it goodbye and worry about what labels stick.

Music
is a huge part of everyone's life. You may not realize it at first, but if you try to go a day without music, it's really hard and you always give up.
