I have a confession to make...

I'm done with my family's religion and living in this god awful house. I hate it here.  With that in mind I'm leaving as soon as I can. Here's the thing, I'm not only leaving  this house, but I'm leaving the state. Everyone knows everyone here, so once I got a tattoo or dyed my hair purple, I'd get those looks and comments. They'd ask why I'm no longer going to their church and If I need to talk to someone. Which I don't want.

I have decided for myself that I can't stand to have past memories taint my future. I know they'll be there in the back of my mind, but I want to become myself without their fucking watchful gaze. I'm doing it with or without their fucking "blessing".
