Don't compare yourself to others. There's no comparison between the sun and the moon, they both shine when the time is right.

No one told the little girls
that the boys with pretty eyes
who smell like smoke
who taste like rain
who whisper in gold
were the reasons behind tears
on pillows
and unfinished poems
and sad dreams.
A beautiful bouquet of flowers
is still dying.
