"Everything was cold and nothing was clear, struggling……" — Aly Johnson
"Everything was cold and nothing was clear, struggling to understand why I was even here. My heart completely stoned, along with my tears. Stripped of my innocence. Dead. No fear. I was on top of the world but buried alive. The hardest but easiest thing to do, was to hide. My eyes were screaming but my mouth was closed, because I know a life like this could never be exposed. And they say its easy to tell the ones you love, but what if its the ones you love that drove you into this mess, and now their life is your life... a life of distress. So tell me again mom how you understand. When you haven't even lived my life firsthand. Yeah, that's what I thought mom and at this point you feel weak, because now its my turn to stand up, its my turn to speak. Take a step back and look at what you have done. You have ruined a perfect life, a life of someone."
