There are ways to alter, I've read about them. It's almost like, if you're not happy with what you have right now, it's like you'll never be. I don't think that's true, there's a time of acception, one I believe everyone reaches at one point or another. I think high school is a big time for that, you want to alter your personality so that they'll like you. So you'll fit it.
But that isn't it, It's never going to be it. Because you can change the outside and who you appear to be, but you can never alter what's inside your heart.
Is there really much to say about paperclips? What are they? Small, tightly bound twists of metal, carved into a shape meant to hold your papers together. But maybe it's more than that, more than just keeping papers together, but storing them, trying to keep them together without driving a staple through the top, a scar, a stab.
Maybe it's there to hold, to stop, to make sure that the pages don't fall apart, for they are so flimsy, too flimsy to keep a hold of themselves.
