Once upon a time, my head was filled with nothing but deceptive thoughts. Lies that I fed myself because my only friend was the sad reflection in my mirror. The sun shined, but there was a constant cover of clouds that blocked all warmth. I lived in darkness despite the light.
As a kid, you don't ever think you could reach the point where you don't want to smile. Everyone lived happily ever after, right? Sunshine and rainbows, laughing, cheering.

Even when you think you're safe, there's something lurking in the shadows waiting for the perfect time to strike. Ready to rip your life at the seam and take every piece of happiness you have left.
I wonder if I deserve this. This isn't what is supposed to happen to the hero.
But, maybe, I'm not the hero.
