A Life Story

6/29/2018

I found a big collie like a wolf -- he was everything to me.
I asked for him for years.

I moved. I moved. I moved.
I fell out of trees I climbed.

​
Men took advantage of me and some took me across the country.
I hurt people and I didn't mean it but that's how self-destruction goes.

There was a lot of cat hair.

I looked at stars. Stars looked at me.

My dad died. 
My dad's mom was hard to deal with
but I think that's because I had to do her laundry
and fold her large silk panties
and she said I had a nose like a pig.
It's time I got over that.
I miss the relationship we never had.

Eating disorder treatment center.
And all the disorder before, after that.

Running away with a con man sociopath.

Writing saved my life. 

​A high school English teacher said my story was filth,
so I didn't writ another until ten years passed.
I turned to playwriting and prop mastery.

I made lots of mistakes.
I fell in love with everyone. 
One for four years.
We played house.
Then it was too much.
Then I found the one I'd loved for years and years.
