House Of Horrors

Horror may be too strong of a word for my "home" but these days it might just fit. There are razors on every corner, tears fueling the shower every night. There is some daylight, when you're lucky enough to be a fool. Two years and it will all be over...
You can't speak your mind here because they cut your tongue and sew your lips shut, because words are your enemy and if you make your argument it is always shut down by the demons. You have to be ignorant to survive, ignorant and quick to forgive if someone stabs you.
You just have to turn the other cheek until you're eighteen.
