Porcelain Skin

You won't be fifteen forever. But you'll always be in the same skin. You'll always have the same eyes, the same body, the same heart. There's a million clichés about loving who you are, and being yourself. And everyone gets sick and tired of hearing about it because half of us don't know who we are! I'm just a teenage girl trying to make my way in the world, this is my blog, this is me. A bad breakup won't guarantee the fact that I'll be more careful next time and won't get my heart broken, a bad grade won't make me do more homework and gets straight A's, and saying I'm sorry doesn't mean I won't make mistakes again. But I learn and grow with each new experience and day, and each new Taylor Swift song that comes out or each new Justin Bieber movie that "changes my life" helps me get a little bit closer to understanding what exactly it is that I'm supposed to be doing in this world. I have fears, and I make mistakes, and I'm breakable. The wrong word or a cold stare can shatter my world, and break the crystals that so delicately hold me together. But porcelain skin is not just my story, it's everyones, everyones skin may not be a doll faced cream color but we're all breakable, we all have skin that can be cut and marked. And at one point we're all the doll that is outgrown and set aside, at one point no one wants to play with us or include us in their story, but a doll never loses her smile, no matter how dusty her porcelain skin may become.
