I've wrote the whole story out in ...2 hours but it's now only 2k+, the problem is expanding and filling in the parts. And trying to write it as if it makes sense. I never write in 2nd person and I will admit I usually hate 2nd person fics but there's this thrill I got from reading a 2nd person perspective poem that it got stuck in my head and now I had to write it down.

Has a 18 years old son that tries to reach out to her but she's rejecting him because she doesn't want him to be associated with her and thinks it is for the best.

'People forget that we are human. They forget that we have feelings, things we love, songs we like, dancing, wishes and dreams like a normal human. They forget and instead treat us like disposable sex dolls, face down on the bathtub, being fucked and destroy from the inside. Just another warm hole to stick their dicks into.'

'I wish I can tell you that things will be better, that there will be warm days and sunny mornings ahead but that will be nothing short of a lie. There's nothing we can change about our past, there's no time machine, the only thing that we can change is how we view ourselves.'
