What's your favourite colour?
It might be pink today,
But it'll probably be black tomorrow.
What is your biggest fear?
Death might've been the answer,
But above all, I fear a life without hope.
The most thrilling moment of your life?
The day I realised I was me,
And I can be whoever I want to be.
A person you love to hate?
Myself, of course. But I'm
Also learning to forgive.
Your first crush?
None. No crushes for me,
I just straightaway fall in love.
Does love ever fade?
No. Love lasts as long
As the heart beats.
When bored, what do you doodle in your note?
Spirals and loops and circles
Going round and round like my mind.
Sunrise or sunset?
Both. One leads us to the morning
The other to the stars.
Are you up for some more questions?
Of course. Keep those
Questions coming...
