Tainted

I hate this place, my soul cannot take it. I am tired of sitting here day after day, pretending to care of the petty problems my family complain of. They often go on and on about how much money get per week. I hate this place; I am claustrophobic of these tiny walls. My head aches from the thoughts swimming through my head like so many goldfish do through a bowl. I hate the foul language they use. Swearing is a second nature to them and this is increasingly hard to ignore. They ignore my talent, my potential and they sneer when I suggest that I could be something better. "Not bloody likely" they say.

This is driving me to the edge. I hate everything they do. The way they complain about not getting enough money, the way they complain when I ask them to do something for me. My young life has been tainted with these conversations. I wish that I could have a normal life but that thought is so laughable it nearly makes me sick at the thought. I pump up the tunes on my iPod, trying to block out their voices. But no matter how loud the music is, it cannot drown out their voices. I lay awake at night, wondering what my future is going to be like if my parents cannot learn to appreciate what they have, instead of what they think they should have.

I follow their orders, I live the way they think I should. Perfect and clean cut. The conflict in my family is more then I can bear but I face it every single day, waiting for the day when I can leave this home and spread my wings. I want to be able to soar, to fly through the world, coloring it as I go. I wish to share my knowledge, maybe become a teacher one day soon. All of these are just dreams but one day I will act upon them. I will soar and disappear from this tainted world. And that is what keeps me going until I can make it as a teacher or maybe even an author. All I wish to do is become the change I wish to see in the world. I, Harry James Potter, want to make a difference
