Doorway 2 Hell

I didn't yet realize as I walked through the doors of this place that my innocence 
would be stipped and I would be left lonley and afraid. It was a place where many 
didn't survive. Temptation was all around and only the smart ones stayed a float. 
So much evil lurked beyond these doors. Evil I hadn't yet been familar with. So 
many doing things their bodies were to young to know. I felt trapped in a prison of 
sin. Trapped in this world and there was no way I could run. It still scares me to 
think about my experiences only god knows how I made it 2 years without losing. 
Everyone who made it out shouted for joy while the others rotted in curruption 
and turmoil. I could wirte a book telling about the many experiences that broke 
me in this place. I was shattered and when I left I was in a daze, in a shell. I know 
now that I could never venture back. Do you want to know the place i'm thinking 
about... Well it may surprise you but the nightmare I escaped was junior 
highschool.
