The pain in my heart is imense. I cannot breath. I cannot see. I cannot hear. I refuse to breath, see, and hear. I must leave. I have to get out of here. There is too much pain here that I cannot stand it any longer. I'm going to move to Tulsa at the stroke of midnight, and start living with my brother.

Maybe just maybe I will be happy then. Maybe just maybe I can learn how to love again. I just hope he won't the jerk I know him to. Stupid Dally always hating me because I'm his 'kid' sister. Lord knows he wouldn't be here still if I didn't pay for most of his bail. At least I still have mother's will to me. (sigh) Breath McKenzie just breath. Let's not start ranting about your brother right now. You must be poliet so that way you won't be thrown out into the street.

Please dear god oh please let me get out of here safe and sound. I don't want anymore pain. I want to live, and get out of this h*** hole of a house. I don't want to be broken anymore. I want to be happy. Please oh please let me escape safely out of here. It's time for me to escape, and it's time for me to change the direction of my life.

My name is McKenzie Winston, and I will be free from everything that has turned against me. That is my life goal. That is what keeps me going, and I am determined to make that the truth for my children to hear when I get older.
