Beauty is a record

I believe that beauty is a record. 
It continues on and on, 
sometimes running into scratches that mess up the beauty of it as a whole,
the scratches that force the song to become distorted. 
Although these records have bumps and scratches,
they remain beautiful.
Every record sings a different song,
tells a different story. 
There is so much variety when picking the music you enjoy.
There's joy and sadness,
anger and despair,
confusion and heartbreak,
yet they are all beautiful. 
Some records hold secret meanings behind their lyrics,
hoping the listener catches on.
Some records spell it out so easily,
the listener understands almost immediately. 
I believe that beauty is a record.
and I believe that record is my life.

  • But then

    i haven't written in five months,

    and i regret it every day

    my room is a mess,

    but i don't know where to start 

    the homework is piling up,

    and my perseverance is dwindling

    i need to practice more,

  • anticipation

    i remember my first day of middle school

    i was wearing washed-out jeans and a t-shirt from Target

    my short brown hair was parted to the side

  • To my sister

    my sister is the most beautiful person i have ever laid eyes on

    inside and out, 

    she is impeccable.

    she is the most generous, selfless, kind woman i have ever met

    whether she's 10 minutes or 10 hours away,
