August 19:
Dear Ethan,
I’m a soldier learning how to survive
I have to bleed just to see if I’m alive
The battleground is a cave in the sky
The only place I’ve got, a roof full of lies
Their shrill voices ring my ear
Turn the headphones up so I don’t have to hear
They hate me with passion, I don’t give a fuck
I’m in my own world so I make my own luck
Judge me and see if I care
I know no one will lift the weight that I bear
I hear the whispers in the hall, I’m not deaf
Don’t be pointing your fingers, just hold your breath
Who are you to tell me what I can’t do
I have self-respect; I’m just a one-man crew
Good to know you gave up on me on day 1
I want to escape from this hell, I’m done
Graduate and leave this town
I don’t want to hear your sound
Live my potential, I’ll break free
When in chains, you ignored my pleas
Haters gonna hate and talk shit
You wanted something from me, why don’t you just admit
You thought I was a dumb piece of trash
Look who’s running now, I’ll be gone in a flash
I caught you guilty of charge
For imprisoning my heart
No respect, no sense of belonging
Just pointless blame without knowing
I don’t want your pity, no sympathy
I knew you didn’t want me
I’m my own person and you ain’t gonna change that
Bitch, what you staring at
No one in this world understands pain
They speak of hurt but to them it’s just a game
They talk carefree, trying so hard not to fall
Their ego is large; the reality they live in is small
Shadows on the wall, can’t dare to shut my eyes
Sleepless insomniac with silent sharp cries
Just a few more months of this I will tolerate
Then I’m out, deuces, I’ll go celebrate
I’ll break your leash, never see you again
This time, you don’t get to win
So bye-bye, I won’t look back
I’m painting my life with color, no more gray and black
My eyes forward to the future
Toward success, this moment I will capture.

RomanceDear Ethan, I write to tell you how much I miss you. I know that you will never read this but I feel comfort knowing that for once I'm being honest with you. It's the rest of the world that I lie to. But now my lies are getting out of control and I...
