Hannah

I want someone to believe in me. I want something to believe in.


Have you read the novel 13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher? If yes, congrats! You can now move on to your life! Now, take me with you.


"Put me underneath God's sky
and know me
Don't just see me with your eyes
Take away the mask of flesh
and bone
And see me for my soul alone"

- an excerpt from Hannah Baker's Soul Alone

Hannah Baker. Whenever I read a novel, I don't just want to read it, I want to climb inside the pages and live there for a moment. But with Hannah's story, I wanna get the fuck out there as quick as possible. At some point in my life, I was Hannah's skin. I got Hannah's tears. I have lived on Hannah's nightmares.


"You don't know what goes on in anyone's life but your own. And when you mess up with one part of a person's life, you're not messing up with just that part. When you mess with one part of a person's life, you're messing with their entire life."


Did you know that the original color of the world is black and blue? Of course you don't 'cause it's not true. It was Hannah Baker's world. It's the color of the world that stops it from revolving. It's the color of the world that stops your eyes from blinking. It's the color of the world that fucks every single moment of your life. It's the color of the world that stops you from breathing.


"You can't go back to how things were, how you thought they were. All you really have is now."


ALL WE REALLY HAVE IS NOW! 

I have read 13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher. I can now move on with my life. I can now take you with me. We can now mess up not with someone's life but with the black and blue world. Will you come with me?
