The Forest // JoshDun x MichaelClifford

•Prologue•

Darkness, is all I see.
Noise, is all I hear from my family.

But nobody's perfect, but nobody's not  like our family. But everyone's like your family.  We're just... below average.

My tears fall because my heart can't handle the pain, the salty sweet bitter taste.

I can't let them win

I can't let them win

I CAN't let them win...

I have just told my family that I'm gay, you expected the perfect reaction of sunny smiles and 'we're all happy for you', but that was the opposite, I guess life is not as expected as it seems.

As the noise gets louder my tears fall harder. Why, why me. This is not what I have planned.

Wait... that's it. I'll run, run away into... a forest. Yeah! A forest, where I can escape this 'perfect household'.

I slowly whilst surely packed away my what I needed the most; water, snacks and something to keep me warm.

I placed them carefully into the ruined backpack. I took one last look at my room

won't be seeing this for a while.

Fear, fear I have while staring at the ground from my window

I can't let them win

I can't let them win

But I can do it.

And so the voices in my head tell me what I should've done a long time ago.

Jump...
