I never had that many friends growing up So I learned to be Ok with Just me, just me, just me, just me And I'll be fine on the outside I like to eat in school by myself Anyway So I'll just stay Right here, right here, right here, right here And I'll be fine on the outside So I just sit in my room after hours with the moon And think of who knows my name Would you cry if I died Would you remember my face? So I left home, I packed up and l moved Far away From my past one day And I laugh, I laugh, I laugh, I laugh And I sound fine on the outside Ha ha ha… Sometimes I feel lost, sometimes I'm confused Sometimes I find That I am not alright And I cry, and I cry, and I cry…. Ha ha ha… So I just sit in my room after hours with the moon And think of who knows my name Would you cry if I died Would you remember my face?

My name is Dylan Richter. My whole life I've hated my name. My folks were huge fans of Bob Dylan and also liked the ocean very much – so it was the most suitable name for their first newborn.

My father kept reminding me that his co workers adored me and saw a bright future ahead of me – how can't a clever girl conquer it all? But the painful part is that they've actually misunderstood me.

I was laying in my bad and it was only 7 PM, but there was nothing much I wanted to do. There are thoughts that are messed up in my mind. You think that as time passes by, that you'll progress as a person, as a human being – that you'll become stronger, independent, and braver. I stand up and reach my Smart phone, rustically like pressing on the Face book App. Looking what are other people doing with their lives Don't judge others by your own life experience.

Only now, has it sunk in – I'm so foolishly arrogant . I was always amazed by other people will to live, to evolve and progress. It might
