Forbidden Fruit

The forbidden fruit.
Yes, it's just as it sounds. The journey was looked at by many as esoteric.
Meaning, many could or would not understand my journey, that it was weird and out of the norm.
I so very much wanted to be normal and, like as they say, popular. But instead, I lived in those shadows till I realized that, hey, others had a life and could and did make their choices. So why couldn't I? I bit down on that forbidden fruit and never looked back. Come what may! But I had to live, or my other option was to exist and eventually die unfulfilled from a poor, defeated life! Many say that with this choice came hell, but wasn't I already in hell? This was how I truly felt, and there was only one way out, so I took that huge leap of faith and won.
But it hasn't always been a fairy tale, as you now know, so it's kind of a great feeling to come clean about it all. Much love, hope, and promise to all of you!
