All these paper people in their paper towns. Look beyond the paper people with their perfect paper lives you'll see a girl. A girl who defines herself as something other then paper. The girl who leaves the paper towns in hopes of being something different…

The paper girls whisper in the halls; talk about the girl who left their town. Such narrow minds can't see outside the structured city made of dreams built upon more dreams. Dreams that were made to one-day die. They don't see their houses built to fall. They don't know there's a world freestanding from world they've been taught is there's to keep.

Your friends want to define themselves as more then paper. Fleeing, they'll take a leap of faith. Friends will frown upon you as they explain the necessity to be more then a paper girl. What's so good about being made of something so easy to tear? Something so easy to bend? They make you feel like your paper world is on its fringes ready to crumble at any given second.

And you wonder in the minutes you've missed while they were together and you were apart; what made them change from their old souls to their new hearts? They were busy disconnecting their worlds only to join into one…you look around wondering is it bad to still be just "someone"?

Just a silly girl made of silly ambition and hope. You're just a girl whose biggest dream is marrying a paper boy and having little girls you can call your own. You grew up in the paper city and you know it's yours to keep. What's not so beautiful; the world tells you to want something more.

I write this letter to, Margo Roth Spiegelman or anyone else who wants to tell me that I shouldn't live in my paper world. ANYONE who thinks a paper future is worse then having no future at all. Any other girl who wants to flea the world just to become no better then the rest of us.

In my little town that's not even hard enough to be plastic, where my little dreams that aren't even big enough to be real; I'll live my life that's not even significant enough to be a story told. Because that's what I want. Because to me, the paper dreams and paper towns are all I need to be happy. A paper town for a paper girl.
