Words of a teenage escapist.

Yes, your heart aches and you feel something beautiful inside but it's a strange and different kind of beautiful. It's the kind of beautiful that makes you want to do stupid, impulsive things like jump in front of a bus or shout "HELLO!" to a stranger you happen to pass by on the sidewalk. It's the kind of beautiful that makes you thankful for the sunrise and the sunset and the clouds and the colors that paint the sky during dawn and dusk. It's the kind of beautiful that makes you giggle from the tip of your toes to the tip of your nose. It's the kind of beautiful that makes you reach out for the stars at night as you tell them to "Shine brighter, please! I don't care if you guys are dead. You're all pretty!!!" It's the kind of beautiful that makes you want to hop on your bike and go as fast as you can with the wind in your hair. It's the kind of beautiful that makes you want to hug every single person you see. It's the kind of beautiful that is akin to reckless abandon.

And yes, it's the kind of beautiful that changes you.
