child, i see you
do not let yourself become like this
you need not be sad to be an artist
while many sad people create, not all who are creative are sad
do not become a tortured soul in an attempt to further your expression
it is a pit you will never leave
write of what you feel already
write of love and change
do not allow the darkness to promise you salvation
