She's just a name on a piece of paper, crumble and discard her, yes we have the audacity to judge you, now we know who you are from words on a paper that aren't your own, yes we know all about you now, we know what you've done, who you are, now you must wait and see if you meet our prerequisites. Our job gives us the right to dissect you then reject you and charge you for the privileged of knowing whether you can be trusted or not.

How would it be if I released the need for that feeling everyday and every night and I just accepted how I feel at any given time.
I believe that I would feel unhappy and have to deal with how I really feel and why I have a void inside. But then at least I'd find peace...
