Dude Looks Like A Lady

3 years ago I left. I, Lily Rose Dawson, left my home and everything I had once had on my 18th birthday. I left my brother. I left my friends. I left my family. I had wanted an escape back when I was 18, I couldn’t handle that dead end town, Baltimore just had nothing to offer me, I was alone in a sea of people. 3 years later I’m truly thankful for my decision to leave. It wasn’t easy, as soon as I had reached Seattle I regretted my actions, how stupid and naïve I had been to leave 18 years behind and start fresh when I was still a child in many people’s eyes, my parents included. Sure they understood why I left, they knew that I was going insane there, I hadn’t been a fan of Maryland in general since I was around 10, from there it got progressively worse.
