We are young, eyes wide open and hopeful. Our future lies before us, full of promise and excitement.
We must move forward, it is my dream. The signs go unheeded, my desire is too strong.
Suddenly things change, I am caught off guard, my world turns sideways, it can’t be true… apologies abound, the incident forgiven. It will never happen again.
Even a short time becomes too long “but how do I leave”. Ignorant in this life’s education, petrified, a hostage in my own home.
