Separation Opportunity by KG Munro

Dreams of freedom force her awake As she runs from the obvious That her happiness is somewhere away From her family and their dysfunction  But she doesn’t have the strength to walk Out on them and face her fear of separation  Of the pitfalls that come with being alone  Until a letter comes through the door She has been given a seven-year contract In the city of New York, the Big Apple,  An opportunity to free herself from this  Rotting rope holding her against a sinking Boat that has been drowning her for years.
