"And all those 10 years you were gone, locked away"

"My life was never the same."

alright, so quick scenario, being is banned where you live.

you love this guy named monty, but then monty is scared of being found out so he outs you of being , causing you to be arrested and serve prison time without parole, etc

but you somehow manage to escape (for some reason such as the warren might castrate you or tickle your insides) while you run away from the prison.

Any time you couldve been caught, the alarm wouldve been sounded sending you back to prison, but you escaped, you were free.

You didnt have anywhere to go, you were evicted since your home owner didnt want a homosexual on their property, so you decide to break in someones home, incidentally Monty's home
