You used to go to school to run away from the horrors of life.
Now,they've caught up with you, and they push you around and away from the ones that care about you at knifepoint.
They force you to do the things you swore you would never do.
They change you.
They scare you.
You had finally become comfortable and confident in yourself.
They show up just to knock you back down to how you felt the first day of freshman year.
Terrified of everyone. You can't trust anyone. Not even the people who are supposed to make school safe. Especially they ones who insist it is.
