1. i fear the unknown
2. i am still learning how to say no
3. i am blind
4. i see beauty in every rift in the universe
5. i know my sister better than i know myself
6. i have never been in love
7. i like the taste of salt and things i know by tongue
8. i am the color of the earth and it makes me feel human
9. i don’t mind my scars
10. my dreams frighten me
11. i don’t believe in stars and i dislike distance
12. i sing in wishing wells
13. i know how to live outside myself
14. i fall for legends
15. i have endless faith in the anarchy of friendship
16. i don’t know how to shatter but i have met salvation
17. i only share secrets with my reflection
18. i want to know the worth of my last name
19. i am stuck making words sound beautiful
20. i am not good at telling the truth
21. i will be
