Chasing Sensibility

Is my new home. Find me HERE.

The problem with me is I got a lot of excuses. There are so many things that I would like to do and so many things that I would like to be.

And it’s gonna be really painful no matter how you try to smile away the discomfort that you feel everytime they make you remember the mistake that you did, the details you forget, and the explanations they can’t accept.
