I took one step forward, the lake seemed like mountains away, if I took one step I'd fall hundreds of feet on clashing rocks.

The soft cool breeze threw my hair back, tangled and beautiful.

Why was I brought to this? Why couldn't I be happy with my life?

I had everything planned out for me, from the color of my nails to the style of my hair. My college, my husband, my life was already set in stone.

Why was I trapped? I wanted to take the step, to be able to decide my own fate, one my parents weren't able to control, to sink to the bottom, be found and have my parents despise my choice, knowing it was because of them.

That all of this, was because of them.
