A tribute to different



"I never expected to be anybody important"


"Its kind of fun to do the impossible"


"You cant blame gravity for falling in love"


"hate is too great a burden to bear"


"No"


"I want to do it because i want to do it"


"The airplane stays up because it doesn't have the time to fall"


"Above anything else, i hate to lose"


"In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different"


"We will always be a nation of immigrants, we were strangers once too"


"I want to put a ding in the universe"


"It always seems impossible until its done"


"I would like to die on mars. just not on impact."

Paris, the city of romance 

An epiphany of love that doesn't last.

I remember an endless path of broken cobblestones,

And a champagne glass that emptied too quickly.

Cafe after cafe with macaroons and parfaits,

And a candle on the water that didn't go out for days.

We waited and we wandered, and we wrote about our dreams,

But it just wasn't long before our pens ran out of ink and our dreams faded into the hearts of tourists past. 

We came with a purpose and left with a broken heart.

We moved on and tried our hardest not to care, 

But Paris was a city before it was a prayer.

Remember me Paris, Ill never forget you.

My name is Emerald and i used to hate it.

I am named after a man. A man i don't even think i'd like if he were still alive.

I want to be a rocket scientist but nobody believes me. 

I cant watch scary movies. 

I once faked an accent for three weeks.

Painting is a hobby i'm just not very good at. 

I said i supported gun control and all of my uncles unfriended me on Facebook.

Camping is the worst.

Film scores are the best. 

I like memes that make fun of North Korea and 1960's sitcoms a little too much.

Movie quotes make up a significant part of my vocabulary.

I have a billion nicknames so feel free to add to that chaos and call me whatever you want.
