VII.

I've got to get out of this place. So cliché, but so true. There's nothing here for me, and there's never been, but it's taken me 16 years (now 18) to realize this. You can't really live till you know what you're worth, and I want something bigger, better, anything but this place. My life begins when I take my first step out of this town. It's not just a pipe dream this time, I'm just gonna break free this time. Don't wait up. I'll turn the lights out when I leave, because I don't think I'll be back.
