Je veux retourner à Paris

The stars a blazing like rebel diamonds cut out of the sun.

When I didn't have to answer to anyone but myself.

Mama says the Legend is so open
because at a point of time,
she believed that she had nothing left to lose.

If I could forget about everything,
and just be.
Without fear of consequences,
maybe I can finally grow.

Maybe I can finally know who I am.

I know I'm strong,
in certain ways,
I've overcome and learnt from my experiences.

but that's the thing,
it's My Own Experiences.
If you see someone you love reaching for a fire,
and no matter what you say,
they still continue to reach for it,
what will you do?

I'd let them get burn.
Because then they'll learn.
Tough love.
Tough life.

I feel like an airhead.
I'm not thinking deep thoughts,
just shallow ones.

Back there,
I was in charge of my on decisions,
my own future.

And I felt so liberated,
for the first time,
I understood why
teens say they want more "freedom"

Because we're so bloody protected from the world,
when all we want to do
is see it,
and learn.
