Getting the courage to get up and go

Bite my head off!
Elisa, dear, go work your ass off.

It's hardly worth it
when the world gets in your way.
Believe me when I say it.


Rip me apart!
Elisa, you're slow.

Now listen to me, mommy dearest,
and listen to me closely, as you,
hellraiser, have ruined my life.


Criticize my every move.
Elisa, you screwed up again!

Only will I feel comfort when
this magic has happened;
your voice is small and fading.


Now I'm out the door.
Elisa, I'm sorry! Don't leave me!

I have been wanting to do this
my whole damn life,
and now I'm on my way.


I'm driving away from my original portal of hell.
Elisa, honey, I love you!

Those words mean very little to me,
as I drive away, with you
no longer in my life.
