In order to free yourself before it’s too late?

Will you do things over and over that make you sick inside?

Until finally you become alright?

~

Can you suffer the stares?

The whispers ?

The damage to your name?

~

What would you do? 

In order to win the game?

My sister just needs to realize that it really wasn’t your fault and even though…
