I looked up at the sky seeing the rain pouring down on the wet ground leaving puddles all over. The birds flew to their nest to be with their children; to keep them warm from the cold fall weather. Listening to all the cars passing me wail I walk down the road; making the splashing noise when the wheels hit a puddle. Having the cars come to a house; going down a driveway to their home, having the parent come out of the car looking tired from work. They walk through the front door and see their children waiting to give them a hug, embracing the love that the child gives them.
Feeling the love in the house, feeling safe like nothing bad was going to happen. Every time the heart beats in a person chest meant 'I love u'. Every breath, every word that they spoke meant that they would be there for you no matter what. That they loved you ever if you did something bad you would still feel that love from that person.
Well I never felt that at all. I never felt the love, never had a parent that would say "I love u" or "how was your day at school baby girl?" No, my mom died in a car accident when I was 14, and my dad 'is' a drinker, and just a few weeks ago he left me. He didn't say a word; he just left me like I was an empty bottle of beer on the floor. He leaves his 16 year old child alone in the world with nothing; No money, no place to stay and no food to eat. My stomach growled when I said that. I haven't eaten in days.
The rain felt like wet cold kisses go down my body, making me shiver every step that I made. My feet pounded against the sidewalk; splashing into puddles making my shoes wet, which made my feet even colder. My clothes were soaking wet. My black jacket was like bags of sand over my shoulders pulling me closer to the ground. My dark blue skinny jeans were unbearable to weir; they were tighter than they should be. And my iPod is almost dead. I can't live without my iPod; it's all I got. Hearing the screaming in the ear buds; screamo is the only music I could listen to, to drown out all the noise around me.
I lost everything that I loved. My home, my mom, my friends, everything, nothing will ever be the same. That's why I'm leaving Ohio to forget my past and work with a new future. Like nothing ever happened somehow I'm going to go to Florida. I will walk, take a bus, steel a car anything to leave my crappy life here.
I stared at the sidewalk not paying attention what was going around me did I really care at all? No, not really someone could hit me with their car and I wouldn't care, I would cry in pain but I still wouldn't care.
Someone was watching me. No, it felt like many people were watching me. Analyzing my movements, seeing where I would go, what I like to go, what my favorite places were. I started to feel like this when I left my house forever to go down to Florida.
My breathing became sharp. I was just being paranoid, that's all, yea, and nothing is going too happened. I thought. Then something grabbed my arm pulling me towards a wall, pushing me my body against it. A hand pressed against my head making me look at the wall intended of him or whatever it was.
"Lookie here boys!
