we all want to belong

"i am the girl they name hurricanes after
because my brain was never wired to be calm."

this is a book of firsts. it's the words that have been stuck in my head since the first time i realized that the world is kind of messy, and things happen for reasons i can't quite understand. it's for the ones who broke my heart when i least expected it, and for the ones that didn't leave me in the dust when i swore i deserved it. it's for the time when i started questioning what i thought i knew about the universe. it's for the cautious explorations of the gray areas of right and wrong. it's for that sleepless night that started it all when an entire spectrum of emotions was taking over my bloodstream and i felt like i couldn't rest until i wrote it all out.
