When I'm with you.

When I’m with you, I act different. In a good way. I smile more and laugh more. I don’t have to pretend everything is okay when it’s really not. With you, I can drop the fake smile and put on a real one. I don’t feel hurt and alone when I’m with you. Instead, I feel safe and loved. You’re easy to talk to, and you listen to me. I don’t have to worry about holding back with you. I don’t feel self conscious. I don’t ever feel insecure or sad. you show me that you really do care, and you’re not just pretending. I really appreciate your company, because with you I’m different. With you, I’m happy.

You.

                                                          Love you sayang.

When I was a little kid.

When I was little, all I wanted was to grow up so I could be free. Now that I’m older, I realize being free and being independent aren’t always the same thing. When you’re a kid, you don’t have many worries, insecurities, or responsibilities. You have time to play, to explore, and to dream. You love without fear and happiness is easy to come by. That was freedom, and how I miss it so.
