Favorite Quote:
Music is always a healer. Music has never let me down. I know it’s my religion. There’s the idea that you can’t truly know happiness until you know sadness, so how can you heal yourself unless you’ve hurt yourself? I’m still figuring out who I am, but I know that I’m not who I was. -Brendon Urie


As proven by Baca,

Hurt can inspire much talent.

Reading A Place To Stand,

Reminds me that I’m not alone,

In my pain, in my hurt.

Hurt can make so many beautiful things.

Hurt helps me write.

But at least I wasn’t illiterate,

Until my teen years.

But always remember Still I Rise.
