November 20th 2023
72 hours
4,320 minutes till complete “freedom”
Free to do what?
Free to think for myself?
Free to make my own decisions?
Free to drink ?
Free to smoke ?
Free to live ?
Free to fall into the hands of dirty adults who “know how to help”
Freedom
Everything I’ve wanted since i was 12
The word seems foreign,
never have I had the luxury of relying on myself
Others will still try to belittle me
“Im an adult”
The idea terrifies me
Just yesterday I was 14
Four years ago I was 14
Playing games
Stayying in, away from the disease the adults called life.
I envied my friends, getting to grow up, allowed to leave the hole of a town we live in
I hated that they left me here
Left me alone to dwell in the pity of their thoughts
Im guilty, im going to leave my friends here, under the criticizing eyes of their peers.
Im going to get my well deserved freedom
My life
