Purple Heart ✓
Spin-off to "Big Yellow Door" but could be read as a standalone. ♡♡♡♡ I was labelled as the girl who got fame as heritage or the one who couldn't stand up to the reputation her parents held. They say I'm a shame to my infamous parent's legacy. Arrogant, rude, slut, druggy and whatnot. People called me whatever they wished for. I believed I possessed talent but they pulled me down. Everything I had got shaded with innumerable comparisons with my father's success. I got my looks from my mother but I was told that I'm nowhere near her. She was pure and I am immoral. He was people's man and I'm an arrogant bitch. The only daughter of the Rockstar, the nation loved and the writer people adored. The only mistake I made was to love music with everything within me, only if I knew how to handle the negativity that came along with it. I saw success but more than that I felt pain. People called me toxic, they said I lacked many things, they called me a product of nepotism but only if they were able to see beyond that, only if they were able to see what that music meant to me. I can't go back as I have come so far now. So the only thing I can do is to give them time to accept me and hope that one day I can complete my dreams and in the process maybe if possible make the two people I love the most feel proud of me.Complete
