Once upon a right now, I am searching every corner of my brain, looking. For what, I am not quite sure. Some say peace of mind. Once upon a right now I hide behing glass walls to protect myself, knowing that the slightest thing could shatter them. That the slightest thing could shatter me. I am not steel. The life I live is not the life I love. I am not tough. Easy to bend, yet useful in many ways. Whether I chose to agree or not, however, I am steel. You cannot break me. You will not hurt me. Once upon a right now I barricade myself behind my emotions. It's so much easier to give up. It's even easier to give in. To give your emotions full control. Doing so would prove you weak. Or human. Once upon a right now we live out lives that we sometimes hate. We face struggles every day. It is time that we emerge from the haze that society has cast upon us. Upon you.
