Parallel Universe

Up til now my life has run on a single course. But lately I see it has split in two. I see my life as it is here, and I see myself in a parallel universe somewhere else heading down a completely different track.

Let me introduce you to the two of us...

Hello, my name Sierra. I live in the back woods of Tennessee. My parents and I hate each other. I stay out past curfew, popping pills and downing shots, writing shitty music and getting fucked. If I stay here long, I'll move in with this guy I've known since childhood and most likely he'll get me knocked up. It's a dead end life, stuck with a guy I don't love and a baby I don't want. To be honest, I'm not happy. And I keep looking over, looking through the glass only to see myself in another dimension living a different life...

Hello, my name is Sierra. I'm originally from Tennessee, but now I live in Mineola, Texas. I have my parents blessing and I plan to visit them in the summer. I go to college in Tyler and keep myself busy with school and work. I'm heavily involved in the arts community here in East Texas and I'm happy to be growing in my creativity here. I'm in love with a best friend of mine that I have grown up knowing. He's an amazing musician and he lights up my world. We like to keep things simple and taking it slow. I wouldn't have it any other way. I plan on making my way down to Austin eventually and continuing my education at the university. I live a life of simplicity and love and creativity. And I know that life has still more for me.

This is what is and what could be or what could have been.

Pretty fucked up, huh?
