People act like I'm so scary because I carry a big knife.

I am.

I didn't grow up in suburbia.

I don't have a man by my side 24/7 or ever to protect me.

I don't live in a little bubble where I can cry or get help every time something doesn't go the way I want.

Scaring people off, being crazier than the crazies, alone, is my safety, my comfort, my reality.

So if you really want to try me, know that I'm not one of you modern day insta popular human thingies.

I've seen things that would make you throw up, give you nightmares and change you forever.

I keep my softness safe.

It doesn't make me bad because you're threatened by someone who takes care of their damn self.

I just have big knife energy.
