“One More Day of Fun” by Milos Klaric

Behind Closed Doors

by Laisha Guerrerro

My world started June 6, 2007 at 8:18 AM I was already a disappointment My entire life I was talked down to I hated every second of it

Years later, I was never to myself I depended on people to be happy, I was told “You need to be alone” I never knew what that meant, until high school

Being alone is the best thing ever I have freedom, self love, and preservation Beautiful, peaceful, lively. I feel these words deeply

All you need is time, patience, and love for yourself. 43
