nocturne /ˈnɒktəːn/

1:10am

craving adventure but never possessing the courage to initiate one myself

person of zilch substance and/or interest

borrowing others’ identities to claim as part of my own

only possessed opinions are of trivial matters that hardly counts as contribution

temporary passion (if any)

overflowing emotions not put to good use, or even any use at all

limited talents that are not complete in any way

false facade to strike people upon first impression but the emptier, once dug

self-centred, conceited, selfish, all kinds of thinking done only for and by myself

false promises

escaping from responsibilities in the pettiest way

every attempt to salvage self isn’t actually a 100% effort

submission towards fear and stereotypes

talk the walk, never the other way round

worry but never actually try to turn it the other way round

writing blogposts past midnight in an attempt to gain sympathy from mass of adoring crowds
