I miss the warmth. I miss the warmth of a family. I miss the warmth of life.
My father was a great man but he died and I had nothing. I am forever grateful for Alex and Max but I can't piggyback off of them forever.
Born and raised in sunny California, I wonder if I will ever soak in the warmth of the sun or die in the heat.

As a way to release my frustration, I give hell to my body and everyone I come in contact with - especially my parents. No one knows about what happened except the ones who did it...and Him. But he didn't stay. Now, he's back and he's not talking either. I want to stop hurting, I need to stop. Make me stop.Complete
