Mirrorball - Taylor Swift

and I'm still a believer, but I
don't know why
I've never been a natural,
all I do is try, try, try.

I wish I could be the type of person that yells at people without a second thought,
the person that lets all her emotions show on her face,
the person who addresses people's wrongs when she's confronted with them.
who voices their concerns on things without turning the words around over and over in her head,
trying so hard to NOT hurt the others feelings with her words and still failing to do so most of the time.
the worst thing is that most of the hurting I've done wasn't even intentional.
it was caused because I said the wrong thing.
so i stop sharing my thoughts with people on topics that i know are risky.
instead i dance around potential battlefields, trying desperately to not step on a bomb.
i try and try and try.
so hard, that when people ask me for my opinion i just shrug and say the easy thing. the thing that the person in front of me likes to hear. Or I just say nothing and instead create what if's of the conversations in my head.
