Confession Text:
Tori helped me stop cutting myself and blaming myself for the things that others have done to me. She made me see that I didn’t need to be punished, that instead I should find a way to love myself. Thanks to her my wounds are now just scars from my past.
Full Confession:
My mother is a toxic entity in my life right now. So much so, that, at 19, I’m completely moving out and living on my own because we cannot live under the same roof and maintain a level of civility with each other.
We got in a huge fight tonight and, to win the battle, she used some hardcore emotional warfare and turned some personal things I’d shared with her in the past against me as weapons. I couldn’t take it so I ran to my car and took off. I’ve been sobbing in my car for the past hour because I’m trapped in this house and this environment until November. To lift me up, I put choirgirl in my stereo and hit the shuffle button. “Pandora’s Aquarium” started playing and, for the first time, the song connected with me. It’s like Tori’s offering to help me dive deep inside my Inner Ocean to find and come to terms with feelings that, up until now, I wasn’t ready to face. If only Tori knew how much her music helped me, almost on a daily basis.
