Give me an hour or so, and I'll give you the rest of my day.

I gave you everything else. At least let me like what I like. I won't squeal or anything. I won't even speak a word of it. I'll face the world with the brave face you molded. The good girl you crafted. All I need is some time alone, just an hour or so. Give me just enough space. When you do, leave me entirely alone. Let me listen to music really loud. Let me watch my favorite TV show, and no it does not include politics. Let me cry myself to sleep without being judged, because nobody can prove it. Let me eat lots of junk food, and welcome the day with some soda. Let me sleep late. Let me worship my books, and place them on a pedestal. Let me be messy. Let me let loose. Let me clean it up myself, because I will find time. Let me do what I please, and I'll face the world exactly as you please. I won't complain. I won't demand. Give me an hour or so, and I'll give you the rest of my day. Give me some space of my own, and I'll tell the world just how lucky I am to be alive.
