Failing Is What We Do, Or Stumbling

I've Been Trying To Find The Word That Says What I Need To Be In Life. 'brave' Is The Only Word. It's The Only Thing That I Ask Myself To Be.

I Always Had Boyfriends, But I Never Imagined A Proposal Or A Wedding. To Me, That Was Like Having A Ball And Chain Round Your Neck.

Makeup Is Scary. When I Do It Myself, It's Just Mascara, And Sometimes I Forget Even To Do That.

I Was Always Longing To Do, Emotionally And Physically, What My Male Counterparts Always Got To Do. I Just Felt Envious, Every Time I Saw A Movie That I Was In Awe Of, And It Was Usually A Male Lead. And Those Kinds Of Roles Weren't Available. They Just Weren't Being Written.

I Watched A Documentary About Freedom Riders. One Young Woman Told Her Parents, 'i'm Going To Leave College To Ride And Represent The Future.' I Thought, 'who Would Do That Now?' Who Would Do That For My Son?"
