In order to fully use this site correctly, I would suggest using the links under the sidebar titled "Navigation." Within those links you will find links to all of my posts and they are organized by a category, then within that, each story or idea, then the order I intend them to be read in. So go check those out so that there is less of a chance for confusion! Thanks!

Hold on...

<---Interlude
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There’s something I forgot
How it felt
The first time
I let him in.
Now
Don’t be disgusting
I’m not being literal.
I previously spoke of
His many instances of hugging me right?
Well
It was just that
He’d basically attack me
It’d start from about ten yards away
He’d run
And grab me
He was basically a bear
So there was no way
I could even try to escape
And I didn’t.
You know how people have
The fight or flight response?
I have the freeze.
Or ostrich.
I don’t move
And turn off all of my senses
This is what I did
With him
Every time he did that
Until one day
I told myself to just breathe
Because I was holding my breath
And when I did.
It was a warmth
That seeped straight through my skin
Giving my heart that tickle
That was enough
To recognize that there was
Something there
But not enough of a wake up call
Like the later kiss was.
Anyways
That was the deciding moment
Breathing like that.
Feeling what he was trying to give me
And taking it.
It was that moment
That I got my first taste
Entering
Into what would become
My addiction.
I know that sounds
Ridiculous
But there’s no other word for it.
For a sheltered
Teenage
Ignorant
Uninterested
Uninteresting
Little girl
He was as close to drugs
As I ever got.
And you know
It was probably worse too.
