"Sometimes we can't control our shine
It controls us
We are stars, after all"
"But I can't use that as an excuse"
"No, you can't."
"Then why tell me? Why not save your breath? I get it, you're wise,
you're old and
prestigious and
important.
I AM NOT!
No matter how hard I try, I will never be seen
Like you
I will never be respected
Like you
I WILL NEVER BE GOOD ENOUGH
LIKE YOU!
Stop trying to fix me, I am already a
hopeless
case.
I am already broken.
Why do you try?
Why are you like this?
Why can't you leave me alone?
WHY DON'T YOU LEAVE ME TO DIE?!"
"Because you will combust without me, my dear"
