Show or tell. A more fucked up version of show and tell. Let me teach you how the game works.

To show is to be good looking, An amazing looking person that does wonders for your eyes can be great at telling but decides to use people's dim wittedness to there advantage. To show is to be big, be loud, be extravagant. Show what you've got that others don't. Show your work, show a fake smile, show a stolen heart that you can crush with two fingers.

To tell is to tell people about who you are, to talk. When you talk you learn someone's personality alot more but if they don't look pleasing your less likely to give them a chance. Telling can do wonders but is very risky. You can be very kind but look like a dumpster. To tell is to be quiet, passionate then when people know you you burst out into something amazing.

There's less to describe a teller. Because they're never similar. But a shower will make you know within seconds who they are. This game can get fucked up. You don't choose if your a shower or a teller. It depends if the people around you want to be. It depends if your parents are showers or tellers. You don't get a choice. You think you have power?

Me? I'm a teller. Fuck it being risky. If people are disgusted by my looks then I'm happy for the few that come and actually are due my time and effort. Thought those few are hard to find. It's also easy for people to drop you. You can't trust anyone. Like being sat with someone and feeling alone yet feeling like there's unwanted company or your the unwanted company.

Wanna know what I just described. Not a fucked up game based on life. Not a way of thinking of people. Not a dirty way of thinking. Its called my head. There are two categories. Not showers or tellers Or emos or junkies or any of that shit. People that are worth me worrying day after day for and people that are so shallow thay they drop me for some random person on one of the days where I genuinely happy. One category is filled to the brim overflowing while the other has a few people that are cosily sat together in a bunch enjoying the comforting company I have picked. Don't trust me. Don't trust yourself. Now.

Go show or go tell.
