So, I just happened to read a blogpost written by someone I know, and I was really amused. Why is it that people try so hard to be 'deep'? Why do you want to pretend to be somebody you're not? When it's forced, you can tell it is. It's a little obvious, and it shows. When you use fancy words just to make a point and use abstract figures of speech to sound very surreal and unique. I don't think writing works that way.
What you are is what you write. Atleast, that's how I see it. Everyone has a different way of looking at the spectrum. You're either on the violet end, or you're far away at the red one. Either way, you know what I'm talking about. The entire pretentious act of writing something that you are not, and then making it look like that's what you are is quite a fail. It's also disappointing to see how hard that person tries, really.
I remember the time when I was a people-pleaser. Now I look back on it and see how different I really am. I don't do things just so others come up with a particular reaction to it. I do it because I want to, I feel like, and it's me. It's what defines me. I don't care what you have to think about it. Honestly, if we all lived just to please others, we'd get way too exhausted of living in itself. It's one thing being yourself, and another thing trying to be what others want you to be.
See the last few lines there? Me trying to do the pretentious writing thing.
Not bad for a first-timer, eh?
Like I say, everything has to have a first time.

The winds.

let the wind blow and with it, let me change
carry with you all my sorrows and my grace
the leaves they flutter and the dust rises up from the ground
as it spins in circles
and let me feel liberated again.
I am a new person from this day forth.
there's a warm feeling at my fingertips
as I flex them and test them
You'll always be living in that one part of my head.
as time goes by, and the winds change again.
enveloping me in their essence
and carrying me away
To a new place.
Now, again.

I have so many pageviews. I mean, not so many but quite a few.
WHY DON'T YOU STUPID PEOPLE COMMENT?
