Matt De La Pena Quotes

He'd Give Anything To Be Out There Playing Instead Of Standing Here Watching. Trying To Maintain This Smile Out Of Respect. He Digs Into His Wrists Some More With His Nails. Breaks Previously Broken Skin And Pulls Away. A Smear Of Blood He Wipes Away With His Other Hand, Rubs Off Across His Dark Jeans. Back Home His Mom Is Always On Him To Stop Digging, But That Only Makes Him Want To Dig More."
-exerpt From "Mexican White Boy
