Sometimes I'm lost. In my own home I'm lost. I had so many questions for my parents. Why do we move so much? Why are you guys so protective? Why can't I be free? Why am I being held hostage by my parents? Sometimes I just think I don't belong in this family. I feel like I don't know them. My dad is always getting new jobs, that's why we move so much. My mom is so private I don't even talk to her. I don't know what i've done or what's going on. But for now im just going to stick to what I always do. All day and all night. Enjoy my happy place.
I didn't know I had a happy place until I was done with my mom and dad. I just stopped all contact with them. My happy place is my head. I'm always happy there. I can let it out in my head. No one gets hurt. Everyone stays the same.
But in my head? No one is safe.
