I try to ignore what is happening around me, I try to forget the pain we go through every day. I try to see past the discrimination and look toward a brighter future. I try to see what can be done instead of what has been done.

Is it foolish of me to think our surroundings will change ? Can they change or will the past repeat its self again ? Can you try and forgive and move on ? Or is it a sin to try and escape that which has captured you ?

Maybe it is foolish to think I can run away from what is happening, maybe it is foolish of me to think that I can't run away. Should I jump in with closed eyes and a happy smile, or should I take it one step at a time and see where I end up ?

With a heart full of hope I wish to escape this place, I wish for a better me and a better future, but is this just wishful thinking or can we escape this bloody place ?

At first I felt somewhat idiotic for staring at myself and trying to figure out what am I supposed to be seeing, but then it came to me. My almond shape eyes threw me a hint when the colour of my cornea changes. These colours always comes in doubles. Blue and grey, green and blue, green and grey; a piercing blue, an antagonising green, a dull grey, never to be the same. They show me the hormones that are running through my body, what my body is feeling, energised, ecstatic, bored, traumatised, exhausted. All these things, that only a few experience when they look at me. My face scrunches as I frown. I see the pain that was brought to me from a young age, I see the heartbreaks I’ve endeavoured, I see the pride that I once felt, I see myself and I see the past and the future. I see these things and with a smile I close my almond shape eyes.
