My first and most important thing is for understanding
Too many have turned...

Having everything that has happened though gave strength
Even if people don't want to understand what I do

How long can minced thoughts reign

Have you heard the saying life is what you make of it?
Of course I have to laugh because you need good ingredients
What I have for ingredients comes from a dumpster

Love would be some sort of meat and the more the better
Often I wonder why I...

I like that if you can make someone smile it's a day best spent but I don't get how if you didn't make them smile it wasn't worth the time to even help them. That is kind of selfish to only be doing something for a reward instead of self worth.
