"Life sucks. A lot. But you just have to keep on going. No matter what happens. You can never ever give up. You just have to roll with the punches, go with the flow, and always try your best to keep on going <3"

My mind has been racing
Faster than I can keep up
And I feel that I’m going insane.
And I feel like a broken record
Saying the same things for days now.
But it’s all so true.
I feel anxious
And nervous
And happy
And scared
And shy.
But there’s no time
To think about it now.
Because the curtain has risen
And the spotlights on me
And I don’t feel a single drop of fear.
