What I do today affects what will happen tomorrow. Today the abuse will end. He will realize how bad he's gotten and he'll quit. Today he will be sober. Today my hopes will crumble, only to be rebuilt again tomorrow. He didn't change yesterday, he didn't change today, and he won't change tomorrow. Yesterday I was weak. Today I am strong. And tomorrow, he will be dead.
"Today is a new day. Today is the day you can change your life." My shrink always told me. And that's exactly what I plan on doing.

Saved
"I've realized, over the past few years of high school, that people are like vampires. They suck your dignity, self-confidence, and your self-esteem right out of your body, like it's blood. They infect you with the poison of hatred, greed, and selfishness. You can't escape their venom, as it's always there, lurking in the darkness, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. I've learned to deal with the sting of the bite, as it never goes away. I tried to not be infected, but the poison spreads like a wildfire, eating away at every inch of your body, until you disintegrate into nothing, and you're forgotten." 🏅achievements🏅 as of 12/30 - ranked #68 in suicideawareness as of 12/30 - ranked #888 in anxietyComplete
