West Covina, CA
Freeform like jazz, structured like classical. I hope, I work, I live. I dream of one day being comfortable in my own skin. I think the world is perfect as it is. I believe there is a truth and goodness to everyone; I love everyone.
I am very naive. I live in bliss in Pandora's box. I soon forget my tribulations--life is too short to dwell on things. I keep persevering because I haven't quite registered just how unlucky I am yet.
Live.
