I always get this burst of confidence to wear whatever the hell I want. To put on some lip gloss, and talk to someone new. I feel like I could conquer the world. Then, I walk into school or a general public place and I pull on my dress to make it longer. I wipe off my lips and tug my jacket closer. I take a deep breath and put on my frown. I don't talk to anyone new. I don't tell my crush I like him. I sure as hell don't ace my English presentation. And I'm back to being a sad shut away teen who's obsessed with their phone.
