About me

Gender Female
Location New York, NY, United States
Introduction I shriek in my car after getting in on a cold night... somehow I think it will bring me warmth, and at the same time, I can keep up the illusion that nobody can hear me. Sometimes, I walk down the street and I feel so incredibly alive that the wind feels like my energy, and I feel as though if I tried hard enough, I could pick myself up off the ground. When I sing on elevators, I believe that the people that get in don't know it was me. And sometimes, I will fall asleep ...and the dreamworld feels more like reality than the life I find myself in.
