It always begins this way

Someday, people more eloquent than I am will speak out about desire.
And people will be less angry, because they were angry with me before them.
And the people will be less afraid, because I spoke early and poorly and I have endured.
And the people will endure less, because I was before them on the road, and I have cleared a little bit more.
I do not believe myself a martyr or a hero; I am alive and ordinary.
I am just a girl with a machete.

Yeah, desire is a powerful thing, though what defines desire?
People we love? things we enjoy? it could mean a lot of things.
Once we know our desires, then the people will be less angry.

I mean, what would ppl say about me and my desires? I've got a heart towards my friends, a love towards women, got a huge sex drive, been proven from my ex btw. Do I have a desire? yeah, of a lot of things: to be famous, to find a decent relationship with a, in my eyes, decent girl. Am I afraid to try? yeah, but I do know the risks involved, and it's something to go for.

Ppl will be less afraid by knowing their desires, though their fear increases when they try and reach their desire, and to achieve it would be to conquer those fears.

No one can be a martyr or hero, they can only be them, its the world that has to define who they are.

And u with a machete? Then i must be a boy with an nine-millimeter automatic
