Breaking the Goddess

"It's ironic how you're named after the goddess of love, and yet you don't believe in it"

"Stupid, right?"

My parents are greek all-obssesive freaks. They actually decorate my whole house greek style, they know the language and they named my brothers and me after the greek gods.

My life has always been kind of crazy thanks to them and I've grown deeper and deeper unattached from all greek things.

It's hard been a teenager named Aphrodite, like the Goddess of love and beauty and you not feeling nor believing in love and not seeing beauty in yourself at all.

But this is me, trying to be.
