This is for the mind over matter contest. While I wrote this I cried. Honestly I'm not sure if they were tears of sadness because everyone will now know I'm not as happy as the smile I wear. Or tears of happiness because I am strong enough to admit I'm at war with myself. I have personally battled with anxiety, depression, eating disorders and at times suicidal thoughts. When I first saw the movie To The Bone, I cried. I have encouraged many of my friends to watch it. Before they watch it they think I'm just obsessed with a silly movie. After they come over to me with tears in their eyes and say, "I'm sorry your fighting this war alone in your head." So I'll open my little heart up and tell you how I am still here. I just don't know if 500 words will be enough.

I've tried. but i've always failed to contain these thousand words in a few sentences, maybe im bad at expressing macro feelings in the few words that I'm limited to. you might think you know me enough because it's been a long time since i first waved at you and the love for the same artist started our very first conversation, but even i haven't discovered the colors of my existence yet, so why do you claim that you have? you think you've already uncovered the secrets and seen the scars and the marks and reached the origin of every preserved artifact in the treasures that i've kept hidden over the years but there's so much more that you would never even hear of. i've chosen to show you everything as a part of a happy story but will you ever know this? which words were rewritten and omitted out and which words are the part of the organic script which fits perfectly into the timeline. have you figured out yet who's the real director of my story? there's so much more to me than you think there is. poetry and prose and everything in between. 26.10.2021 - 01.06.2022
