Mindless thoughts and horrible emotions of my insanity spilled on paper for your eyes to see.

These poems are by me, I write them from my heart. It took a lot of convincing myself to put these on here for everyone to look at. So go ahead, judge me and comment whatever is on your mind. But let me tell you one thing: One day, you could have a moment that makes you think of this and you'll back and be like 'Ah, Shit!' **Only reason there is a part 1 is cuz it wont let me write anymore on this cuz it has 100 parts (Cover by JasminBlue)

Ellen Hopkins shares her work on Wattpad in honor of Banned Books Week.

Everyone has something, someone, somewhere else that they’d rather be. For four high-school seniors, their goals of perfection are just as different as the paths they take to get there. Cara’s parents’ unrealistic expectations have already sent her twin brother Conner spiraling toward suicide. For her, perfect means rejecting their ideals to take a chance on a new kind of love. Kendra covets the perfect face and body—no matter what surgeries and drugs she needs to get there. To score his perfect home run—on the field and off—Sean will sacrifice more than he can ever win back. And Andre realizes that to follow his heart and achieve his perfect performance, he’ll be living a life his ancestors would never have understood. Everyone wants to be perfect, but when perfection loses its meaning, how far will you go? What would you give up to be perfect? A riveting and startling companion to the bestselling Impulse, Ellen Hopkins’s Perfect exposes the harsh truths about what it takes to grow up and grow into our own skins, our own selves. ***Listen to the attached videos to hear the characters read an audio version of "Perfect", voiced by various actors.***
