Its kind of hard to imagine a place pure and free of teenage issues and dramas. I never thought I would be able to escape my problems in the real world. I never thought I would be able to let go. But know as I sit on this rock, staring at the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen, feeling the wind blow my hair back, and smelling the wonderful scent of nature, I know I've escaped.

I can support her if I cant even support myself. Im over with this sadness, I want it to be gone. I'll will it away with anger and resentment if I have to.

I stopped Mr. Tark before he could go on any longer. " Im fine," I say with as much confidence as I could muster. " I want to be on my own. I want to fix myself. I can handle me. I know myself better than anyone
