Array ( [sid] => 95082 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => A bottle of Anguish & Fury [time] => 2005-05-19 23:56:28 [hometext] => Don't you wish people would just back off sometimes? More of a letter than a poem. [bodytext] => I can feel you breathing down my neck. I stare at the floor and tell you what you want to hear. I guess we've got real big plans ahead of us... I guess we've got a future that you've paved for us. But what if I just don't want to live the dream? What if the plans you've made for me aren't what I have in mind for myself? You seem to want to control my direction, to drive my ship.

Well now i've finally grabbed the reins. It was a long time overdue but it has finally happened. My life will no longer run parallel to yours. I've tried to tell you before but you just wouldn't listen, but now things have changed and I no longer care what you think of me. Call me what you please and mock me when my back is turned but I will be the one who lives happily, I will be doing things my way.

It's funny how things change... Years ago I would have never thought it would come to this, but now that the time has come I can see how it had to happen. You just had to have me bow to your will but now i've become much wiser. I'll no longer abide this nor will I reconsider, there's just too much abuse to ignore. So now that i've decided, i'll put my new plan into motion.
