I sneak into the white lenomion floored bathroom, go into the furthest stall, and shut the door tightly behind me. I slide the lock, put the toilet cover down, and sit down. I pull my legs tightly close to me, so no one can see my feet. Next I pull my small zip lock bag full of fine white powder out of my bag. Before I know it I’m blacking out.

My friends never understood my pain, so I shut them out to. I don’t think they realized it though, anytime I make a mistake they overlook it. I became depressed. I had no one left, so I turned to the only thing I did have. Drugs. No one knows about it. No one. I’m hoping no one ever will. I don’t need

    Do you remember when you were a little kid and you had to climb on your counter-top to reach a cabinet? I remember it as if it was yesterday, maybe because it really was.
