Crowded halls
Homework
Stagnant air
It felt as if she could never breathe there
Shitty friends
Off and on long two and a half year relationship
That haunted her into her young adulthood
The first year of it in high school
Abuse, neglect, gaslit
It seemed it would never end
She hoped for a way out deep down
The codependency
The family drama on all ends
It was all too much
In the end
She didn't even get to walk at graduation
Left out of all the graduation festivities
It hurt
These wounds would take years to heal
