she dreamed of a place

This is an open letter to all who are lying to themselves saying that the world is a great place and humanity is beautiful.

She dreamed of a place of bliss. Not a place with no responsibility just a place where achievement is not taken for granted. She wished for a place where time boundaries don't exist. She never quite understood why we get congratulated for doing something we never had a choice of in the first place. Parents don't give their kids any other option than to graduate but then when they do the kid gets congratulated like it was something they wanted, like they weren't just forced 4 years of pointless school. She wants is a world where people are proud of each other for being happy and controlling their own destiny. Now this girl isn't like everyone else you see. She saw the world differently than everyone else and what wise beyond her years. In her eyes there was a aura of power that you could see for miles away.She tried to see the light in everything she could. As the world grew older that became harder. She reflected the world and as the world became darker so did she. It wasn't her fault she was self destructing. There was just less light to keep her from going dark. Many people were her looking at her hurt. She didn't understand why people were so hostile to love and light. All she wanted to do was run far away from this place that was once so bright but crumbled to this wasteland we all humanity. LIfe should not be suffocating. She would never conform to be like them but she started to hear the whispers. There was a unusual loudness to the whispers should hear. It got to a point that if she did not conform to be like the blind she would drive her self insane. No one knew how to help and no one ever could. What's done is done and now we are forced to live in this mess. We are just sitting in the grave that we dug ourselves wondering how we got here and how to get out.
