Have you ever thought about what would happen if you just ran away, then see how many people would actually miss you or worry about you? Or even the times that your parents or siblings push you to the edge and you just want to leave and let them have a chance to miss you? Or you begin to think about what life would be like with you missing? What would certain people act like if I was missing from that place in time and was living in another?
Think. Is what you tell yourself but the overthinking thoughts force you to stay mentally quiet because you don’t need the over complications in life when you feel you are the over complication. That’s why you want to run away, duh. No one wants to run away, just to run away. There is always a reason to run away, people run from the person who has a gun. So when someone wants to run away from home they are running away from the “gun” because this is a natural human response; run from the danger while you can. Why not take someone with you when you run away though? Sometimes being alone is the worst situation to be in when you are really just needing quality time with someone. When you haven’t been able to be with that best friend in such a long time that your situation is finally resolved by running away with them to just be with that special friend who actually cares.
Take the time to let your mind take you away, run away from your reality and imagine that if life stinks in the moment remove yourself from there and escape with your best friend and never look back. Take this mental stay-cation, then realize when you get back that life isn’t that bad when you have your imagination to take care of you.

‘Be honest, if it were you and me would you go anywhere?’ I had asked you, my best friend. ‘Where?’ You repeated. I would then say ‘anywhere you want, as long as I have you I am fine with leaving.’ Then you being you, will respond saying ‘it doesn’t matter because I go where you go. So really, where do you want to go?’ ‘Alabama’ was my response and that’s where we made our first escape.
The escape, the one you have always needed, to get away from the world you live in and spend time with me. Just you and I. When you chose to run away with me, out of all people in the world it was an honor. No- It wasn’t an honor. It was more than that. It’s unexplainable, when you chose me to be your best friend and you decided to take me in and never judge who I was and the person I am today… I just- it basically proved every disgusting and detireating word wrong. I thought no one could or would love me after all I have been through, then you wrapped your love around me and told me everything would be just fine. You care about me and that’s all that matters.

Our plans were set and all we wanted was that time with each other as sisters so we could finally be free. We needed to rest from the constant yelling at home, the fighting with siblings and parents. The greatest healer of the heart is laughter, smiles, decompression, and a few tears that means you finally let go of the past and forgive everything that has happened.
