Play The Victim [ft. Luke Holland]

I looked up at the twilight sky, closed my eyes and inhaled slowly, taking in the smell of fresh citrusy pine trees, I could see them even with my eyes closed, so green and tall, they almost felt like guardians. I could smell the saltiness of the clear blue ocean, the delightful smell of Joe’s Dinner down the street that I loved so much. This fall-- almost winter air, was the most blissful feeling in the world; it felt like home… it was home.

I sat down in my mom’s swing that faced the ocean, I looked around my surroundings, getting this warm feeling inside. I rested my elbows on my thighs and my head on my palms.

I was caught between a knife and the wall…

Should I be who I need to be, to save my family, to live my life the way I always have...

or do i throw it all away and follow my heart, would it be that important to lose everything that i've ever known, the ONLY thing I’ve ever known just to follow my heart?

Just to follow the hollow muscle that beats inside my chest.

Would it even be worth it…

Is losing my life here really an option?
