With Time - 2016 UNEDITED. Subject to change.

I never thought my path would take me here. I never in my wildest dreams thought that my life as an adult, would rival the loneliness, the pain, the suffocation of my childhood.

When I was younger, I always dreamt of a life far away. Somewhere fabulous like New York, Paris, Miami… I never once thought I’d be trading one hell for another.

I met Derek when I was waitressing at the truck stop my senior year of high school. He just came home from his first year of college — came back to cooking on the grill to earn some money.

He was everything I thought I wanted. Everything I needed. He was the hope I’ve been clinging to all my life. He didn’t know it, but I knew the first night I met him. He was going to be my savior — my ticket out of this hell.

Now I’m left wandering alone — searching for anything to breathe life back into me.

They say time heals all wounds. With time, I’ll be able to breathe again. It won’t always feel like I’m dying with every breath I take.

They lie.

It still hurts.

And I’ll never be able to escape.
