So, I'm writing a memoir. This is how it starts, but I'm thinking of changing it.
I can send you more if you want. Just ask.
I've been thinking about my past a lot lately, and I've recently realized something, I am a survivor. I know it sounds odd for an eighteen year old to be saying that, but it's true. I guess for this to make sense I should tell you everything that's happened in my life. I have to warn you however, it's not pleasant or happy. It has death, abuse, abandonment, drugs, and so much more, but I guess I'm ready for my story to be out in the world, maybe give some people a shock. This isn't just my memories, some of it is fact, some is confessions, some is just general knowledge. It's not going to be every little detail, I wouldn't want you to have night terrors like I do, but it's a lot of information, but not a lot of it is happy, but I'm used to it. This is just the way things are I guess. I'm used to it, it's the past, so maybe if I write it down, I can start living in the present...






Oh honey, you break my heart. You have a wonderful way of expressing yourself and drawing people in. I think you are a very special person.
