Life can leave you vulnerable when you least expect it—it can leave you lost with nowhere to turn. Life can bring you down hard, and my god did I fall.
At war with my thoughts and feelings, I drank away my demons because I was too scared to voice them.
I was living a lie, yet the one I craved I didn’t know how to grasp.
Afraid, I ran in the direction of a freedom that never came.
Then I saw him, and he changed everything.
He changed me.
