If I Respect Myself And Believe In

I Might Sound Crazy About This But, Years Ago, My Mom Told Me: "we Almost Died When You Were Born. Both Of Us." I Was A Caesarean Baby, And The Doctor Who Delivered Me Later Told Me, "i Opened Your Mother Up, And You Were Right There. It Freaked Me Out Because Everything Was Broken And Out-there." I've Thought About It A Lot - Could This Have Something To Do With The Fact That I'm Only Happy When I'm At Home And Alone? Maybe I Was Just Freaking Out For Two Weeks Before I Was Born, Feeling Really Insecure.

And If I'm Being Honest, I Don't Think I Have An Ex-boyfriend Who Would Have Something Mean To Say About Me.

If I Had A Kid, And I Had A Choice Between Teaching Somebody How To Avoid Trouble, Or Teaching Them How To Get Out Of It, I'd Teach Them How To Get Out Of It.

I Used To Get A Shiver If I Thought About Holding Balloons, Because I Was Scared Of Floating Away.

I Resent Limitations. I'm Going To Be This Way For A While, And Then The Funny Side Of Me Is Going To Come Out. Slowly, People Are Going To Realize They're Seeing A Completely Honest Evolution Of Human Life.
