A heavy pit closes my throat
My thoughts are the quicksand
Slowing my own two feet
Your betrayal hit me hard
But I scramble to pick up the pieces
I sit on the floor with trembling hands
Trying to piece together our childhood
Tears fog my vision, I choke on my gasps
This is what you planned
This is what you wanted
This is what you wrote about
This was your revenge?
What about me?
I did all I could to love and protect you
I can’t seem to grasp the fact that you left
I can’t seem to grasp you never loved me
I can’t seem to move forward
I am stuck
What will you do about this?
What will I do about this?
...
What is family?
What happened to my brother?
Why is this my burden to carry?
Why did you hand this to me?
